FIRST PLACE: “September 11 Forever Burned Into Fire Fighter’s Memories”

“I probably think about it more so now than just after. There doesn’t seem to be a day that goes by that someone doesn’t ask me about being there. Certain things trigger the memory, too. I will never, ever, forget it. I appreciate my family more now; I hug and kiss my kids more often. I know now how easily, how quickly, everything can be taken away from you.” -Quote from Lt. Mike Cutro, member of Oswego, NY Local 2707
