Twenty-five years ago, on September 11, 2001, the world changed forever. The attacks of that day impacted the United States as well as communities and families across the globe. It is a day etched into everyone's memory, moments that seem as if time stood still.
At John Hall's Alaska, we remain incredibly grateful for the countless individuals who made sacrifices, answered the call to serve, rushed toward danger to help others and stood united in the face of attack. We honor the courage of first responders, military members, volunteers and all who were part of that day and its aftermath. The service and sacrifice will never be forgotten.
For so many, including many John Hall supporters, September 11th is also deeply personal. We remember exactly where we stood, learning of the attacks. In the early morning hours of Alaska's daylight on September 11th, John Sr. received a phone call with a simple message from a longtime employee and dear friend, Earl Lamberton: "Turn on the TV." Like millions of others, he watched as the events unfolded and realized, heartbroken, that the world would never be the same.
As we mark the 25th anniversary of 9/11, we remember those we lost, honor those who served and reflect on the resilience, unity and strength that emerged from the United States in the face of tragedy. It is truly a day we will never forget, and a reminder of the enduring spirit that continues to unite us all.
Never Forget.
