When tragedy strikes, communities come together. On September 11, 2001, one of this nation’s most terrifying tragedies brought the entire country together.

Today, on the 17th anniversary of the terror attacks on the United States, communities in and around Landrum came together to remember those who lost their lives.

If you couldn’t join us today, we hope you will be able to join us next year and will look at photos from this year’s observance.
