9/11 is a day that all Americans will remember, but it is an especially significant day for all New Yorkers. We will always remember those who were lost, those who sacrificed so much to save lives, and those who survived and are still standing beside us. We’re mourning and grieving, but also celebrating the life and legacy of those lost in the attacks on the Twin Towers on that fateful day in 2001. Although many lives were taken too soon, we can honor their lives and those who survived by giving back to our communities and supporting our neighbours.
From all of us here at Atlantic Hyundai, we thank the EMTs, Firefighters, Law Enforcement, and Civilians who did their best to save as many lives as they could, and those who came together to support a community while it healed. New Yorkers are grateful, and America thanks you for your dedication and service.
We are stronger and more powerful when we are united on common ground, and promote peace, community, and camaraderie. So this year, we ask you all to consider volunteering for your local neighbourhoods and community centers, and ensuring that we lift one another up and stand tall. By supporting one another through the good times and bad, we can stand strong in the face of adversity. We can get through anything. We are New York Strong.
