George was my cousin, and I miss him so very much.... It's gonna be nine years tomorrow, and it still feels like yesterday. I remember when I was younger, George helped me overcome my fear of jumping off a diving board into the deep end of a pool. Thank you, George, for helping me and for being such a great person. We all miss you so much, and I know that you're looking down on us. I love you always and forever, George!

I recently found out about Georges passing on 9/11. What a shock. We went to school together and lived on the same block in Bensonhurst. I remember the great times we had at FDR HS. George "THE GREEK" was always laughing, smiling, and in a great mood. To the Merkouris Family (Anna, Kathy, and your parents), I'm so very sorry for your loss. George was an amazing guy. God bless you all. E-mail: shrappley (at) AOL (dot) COM.

George Merkouris was a sweet person. I knew George through F.D.R. High School. He was a lot of fun, never unkind, always friendly, very talented. I just found about George this past September 2007 while watching the memorial on TV. I was heartbroken. I mourned him as if it had just occurred. I recently searched and found pictures from a school trip to Washington, DC, and there is George, on the bottom of a human pyramid of students, in front of the white house, laughing up a storm and enjoying life and his friends. And in that happy moment, that is how I will always remember George. God bless!

Post your memorial thoughts:

Share your feelings and memories of grief and sadness concerning the 9-11-2001 attack, or of positive memories.  If you knew this person, help us to build a small 'bio' of the person and share with us something about his/her life:

  • what kind of person he/she was, 
  • what nice points you remember about him/her, 
  • what kind of relationship you had with him/her, 
  • what you two perhaps did together, 
  • what he/she meant to you, 
  • or other things about him/her might be especially encouraging for other people.

This web site is intended solely as a means of allowing all of us to express our grief and sympathy in behalf of the people who lost their lives, and also our love and compassion towards those who lost loved ones and friends in the 9/11/01 tragedy. The site is strictly for memorial mentions of those who passed away in the tragedy, not of other people who have passed away.

Our hearts are very touched with concern in behalf of those people, and it is to them that we dedicate this web site. It is not our intent to venture into the realms of WHO should face judgement, to take responsibility for those terrible events, because we have no way of knowing for sure who all might fall into that category. Therefore, any letters or notes written passing judgment upon any person or group will not be published on this site. We do NOT want this site to be a base for expressions of hatred, but only for expressions of LOVE!

9-11Heroes.us is a personal effort, not a business, nor is the site dedicated to any specific person or persons. We will not post negative comments. Moreover, 9-11Heroes.us reserves the right to choose which comments to post and also to edit the comments for spelling, punctuation, grammar, or edit comments that are unkind or offensive in some manner. We are maintaining this site with our own money and time. We try to keep the advertisements to a minimum and we try to make them as unobtrusive as possible. The revenue goes back to maintaining this site.

Thank you for your understanding in these matters.
