In Memoriam

on2legs · September 2017

So I'm pretty sure the dedication over 9/11 from Ed's set this weekend was for the daughter of the pilot of the plane that struck the south WTC tower in 2001. She is in the documentary Nine Innings From Ground Zero. It's on YouTube if you care to watch it. The whole thing is pretty moving, but she appears around the 40 minute mark if you have want to skip ahead.

Never Forget.

It was loving for my soul

Amen

I've posted this before on the boards. 17 years now.

On July 8th, 2003, Pearl Jam played NYC (MSG) for the first time since 9-11-01. Before "I Am Mine", Eddie had this to say:

“If I could just say, as a representative of the group, I just wanted to tell you that this is the first time that we’ve been here since that big day ago about a year and a half ago. Seemed to change everybody. We were on the opposite coast in Seattle and everybody felt it and we felt it and we had just been through Denmark the year before and we certainly knew what it felt to see loss of life and to feel it deeply. I know how many people, each life affected. So I’m taking the opportunity now, a year and a half later, since it’s the first time we’ve been back proper, just to tell you we were all thinking about you and we think you handled yourselves so great. This song, this song’s about personal safety and the feeling of being secure and even free. It’s called, “I Am Mine”.”

Hard to believe it was over 10 years ago. I vividly remember this emotional feeling coming over me as he spoke and I still get chills when I hear it today.

God bless all who lost their lives that day and the families and friends affected.

I was about two hours away but one thing i remember strongly was how nice the weather was that morning. Like a perfect blue sky. A few white clouds. So bizarre.

I still remember what I was doing ( getting ready for a flight) that morning and all the confusion that followed. Had to visit the small Memorial we have here in Kitchener to pay my respects.

17 years later and I remember like it was yesterday. Never forget.

Gern Blansten · September 2018

I remember being at my desk (safe at work in Indiana) and listening to Bob and Tom on the radio. When the first plane hit we kind of blew it off like a freak accident. I remember discussions about how it was a small plane, etc. that must have just really screwed up. Then the second plane hit.

Really bizarre day that I'll never forget...like everyone else.

So difficult to believe it has been 18 years since this tragic event. It truly changed the world.

She is such a cool dog .is she still alive ? And how old?

trees · September 2019

She is believed to have been the last surviving dog from the 9/11 attacks when she was euthanized in Texas in 2016; she was 16 years old and suffering from kidney failure.[1][9] As Bretagne entered the animal hospital in Cypress, Texas, firefighters and search and rescue workers from the fire department lined the sidewalk and saluted. She was carried out later, her body draped in an American flag.[10]

I looked her up bless the ANIMALS everywhere they are so intune with the world
