It has been twenty three years since a morning which started with sunshine and blue skies turned into a day filled with sorrow and tragedy. A day which must never be forgotten.

There were many heroes that day who risked everything to save others. Some made the ultimate sacrifice. Firefighters, Police, Emergency Medical Teams and ordinary citizens.

And for many months after that day, Search and Rescue Dogs worked beside their handlers. They were not only a part of rescue and recovery, but were a source of comfort. Their contribution was invaluable.

Time passes, but the memory of the events of that tragic day must never be allowed to fade.

“Dads are most ordinary men turned by love into heroes, adventurers, storytellers and singers of song.” ~Unknown

Happy Father’s Day to all the special Dads who love nothing more than making memories with their children, grandchildren and four-legged kids! Memories that will be cherished.

This photo was taken at the annual Ashley Hall (Charleston, SC) Father’s Day Luncheon in 1965. My father is in the center and I am seated to his right. A special day spent with a special Dad.
