September 11 Memorial Garden


"The events of September 11, 2001 impacted not only our country, but also our community. On that day, the Town of Sudbury lost three beloved residents – Cora Holland, Peter Goodrich, and Geoffrey Cloud. Our community vowed never to forget the lives of these residents or the tragic events of September 11th.

On September 11, 2003, the Town of Sudbury proudly dedicated the September 11 Memorial Garden. The Memorial Garden features flowering plants and trees, three bluestone benches, and a commemorative center stone of Sudbury granite, where engraved bronze plaques recount the events of September 11, 2001 and memorialize the three Sudbury residents who were lost." ~~~Town of Sudbury website

Along with the three residents, several community members lost loved ones in the World Trade Center as well as on the airplanes. Alexander Filipov of Concord also lost his life. These losses were strongly felt.

Nice Tribute and Nice Photograph.
The garden has thrived since I last visited. I think I will stop on my way home today. NH

I think 9-11 will live on in our memories for a very long time.
