From Tragedy Seguin Honors 9/11 victims, to Lessons: heroes with community memorial Local emergency Darren Dunn
(Seguin) -- The city of Seguin joined the rest of the nation Thursday in remembering all those who lost their lives during the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001. A community 9/11 Memorial was held outside the Seguin Police Department. It was jointly hosted by the Seguin police and fire departments. Seguin Police Chief Jason Brady opened the ceremony by inviting Emmanuel’s Lutheran Pastor Marcus Bigott to provide the invocation. Bigott prayed that the event would help people become instruments of reconciliation and hope. “On this day of remembrance, we gather as one community, neighbors, friends, first responders and leaders bound together by grief and by hope. We remember the lives lost on Sept. 11, 2001, and we honor the courage of those who ran toward danger to save others. We give thanks for the men and women of our own community here in Seguin, for our county and Memorial, pg. 4
leaders recall how 9/11 shaped their lives Cindy Aguirre-Herrera
(Seguin) -- Just like the lives lost, the lessons learned 21 years ago on Sept. 11, 2001, are not being forgotten. As Americans pause to remember the terror attacks on U.S. soil, Seguin and Guadalupe County’s top emergency officials are reflecting on how those moments continue to provide important lessons and reminders for the nation today. Guadalupe County Sheriff Joshua Ray says he will never forget the exact moment he heard the news. Having just left the U.S. Marine Corps, Ray was serving as a brandnew rookie state trooper with the Texas Department of Public Safety in El Paso. He recalls standing in his small RV, putting on his uniform and preparing for another day of duty, when everything changed. “I was watching it on one of those old box small television sets and it’s important that we remember the first responders and the people who passed during that tragic Lessons, pg. 3
