Patriot Day not only marks a National Day of Remembrance but holds a profound significance for those of us in New York. As we recall the events of September 11, 2001, we remember the loss, the heroism, and the collective strength of a state and nation that refused to be defeated.
In the Heart of Tragedy
"As the tragic events unfolded that day, we saw humanity at its very best in the worst of circumstances. First responders, healthcare professionals, and countless everyday heroes emerged, putting their own lives at risk to assist others. Their dedication, love, and commitment on that day are emblematic of the indomitable spirit of New York and our Country itself," states Andrew Doro, Founder & Chief Executive Officer of Millbrook.
The reverberations of 9/11 were felt not only in the streets of downtown Manhattan but in the hearts of people statewide, nationwide and globally. The skyline changed but the essence of NY – its diversity, strength, and resilience – shone through even brighter. Today nearly two decades later we stand together united in our resolve to remember rebuild and look to future with hope.
