As we near our national holiday, the Fourth of July, I am remembering how important freedom is to this country. The freedom not to live in fear is so important. Dora and the others on that flight were heroes. I worked with Dora and remember her as an intelligent, kind person.

I had the pleasure of meeting Dora's daughter today via the internet on Skype. We spoke about her as I remembered her in high school.... As I told her daughter, to me she will always be 18, as that is the last time I saw her. The memories came flooding back to me as I spoke of her. One thing is that, in all the years, she had never changed.... She was delightful and caring, and she had a great sense of humour. Dora would be so proud of her family and of her daughter and her accomplishments.

I thought a lot about Dora today. I hope her family has found some peace.

She was a dear friend from high school who accomplished what she said she would.

9-11-2007. Six years. People say they'll always remember, but you often wonder if they really do. I do--especially today. This morning, I wanted to wear something that would remind me of my old high school classmate every minute of the day. So I dug my high school ring out of my jewelry box and slipped it on. It was too small for my ring finger, and even though it's a little too big for my little finger, I'm wearing it there now. I have to be careful of it or it could slip off and I'd lose it. Isn't it that way with everything and everyone we love in life? Like I said, I wanted to wear something that would make me think of Dora every minute of this day. Thank you for reminding me, Dora. Bless you for blessing us all.... AE

Our hearts are very touched with concern in behalf of those people, and it is to them that we dedicate this web site.

This web site is affiliated with 24K Gold Music Shows - an oldies music showband performing in Central Florida. The members of the showband feel strongly that there were many heroes manifested during the onslaught of terror associated with 9-11, and present this site as a memorial to those whose lives were lost, and the loved ones they left behind.
24K Gold Music Shows perform primarily 50-60s Oldies, Elvis songs, DooWop, and older country music, as well as patriotic songs. All of the musicians, singers, dancers, and staff of the 24K Gold Music Shows extend their deepest sympathies to every one who lost loved ones on that terrible day.
24K Gold Music Shows performs an original song called "The Day America Cried", which is a 9-11 tribute song. In the live shows, they honor with the song not only the heroes of 9-11 but also those who are still alive: the police personnel, firefighters, emergency personnel, soldiers, and others who have served our country and kept us all safe.
The video below is a song you might like by 24K Gold Music shows, called Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy.
