Kelly & Hank Moore, Brandon, FL-formely Mass
Our hearts go out to the families directly impacted by this horrible attack on our country and citizens. The thought that the two planes that hit the WTC came from a place we are so familiar with brings it so close to home, and yet still so unbelievable. God bless America and it's citizens everywhere !

Peggy, Shirley
There are no words that can express the way that I feel. I can not understand the hate that one can have for another that could lead to such destruction. The events of the last few days will stay with me forever. I offer my prayers to all who have been hit by this tragedy.

Melissa Ann, Holbrook
When I woke up that morning It was such a beautiful day. Who knew it wouldn’t stay that way? It didn’t take long before I knew. Disaster struck at 8:42. Our faceless enemy hijacked four planes. One crashed into each twin tower, one hit the pentagon The other target unknown. Many lives have been lost and many tears shed, As two beautiful buildings lay rubble on the ground. Our pentagon aflame. And we don’t know our enemy’s name. We don’t why they did this And we don’t know how. Now millions are crying for the lost ones in the planes And in the buildings too. Crying for the ones that witnessed the collapse. Crying for the people we still can’t find. Now millions fear battle or war. This won’t be just let go. We will find who did this to our nations soul. Many tears were shed the day Our planes fell from our sky.

Eric, Haverhill
I would first like to offer my sincere and warmest condolences to all those people who have suffered a loss in this terrible crime. Next I would like to tell all those police men and firefighters how proud I am to be an American because of them. These are the people who make America the greatest country on earth. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your loved ones. God Bless

My family was blessed and lucky to have my brother-in law survive from this tragedy. He worked for the NYSE at 2WTC and it was hours before we knew he was alive...Our thoughts are with the families still waiting for news.....

I am deeply saddened and shocked since the events that have occurred on Tuesday. The feelings are overwhelming, but I will say that there is power in prayer. Through this chaos, let us remember God. To those families who have lost their beloved, I pray for you endlessly. Keep the faith and know that this is not over.

Lorie Alston, Worcester
My thoughts are just so over-whelming at this point. I believe I am in a state of denial which is helping me deal with this horrific tradegy. My heart and prayers go out to all the victims families. I have been praying every day since this tradegy happened. My five year old daughter (Brittany), continues to ask me if we are going to be alright...I tell her yes, and just continue to pray. This gives me gives me strength and courage to handle this unimagineable act. This is so horrific, you can not begin to comprehend such a thing happening in the U.S. (your basically in denial). I think most people are dealing with it that way. I will continue to pray for the victims families as they try to piece back together their lives, for they will never be the same. Thank you for giving me a chance to share my thoughts and I pray we can find world peace. Lorie Alston

The Corr Family, Westford
