Today, we remember the innocent lives lost, the families forever changed, and the heroes who ran toward danger.

We honor the courage, sacrifice, and service of our first responders and all who answered the call.

25 years later, We remember. We honor.
We will never forget.

Good morning, Lee County let's stick together and lift one another up.

Loss leaves an emptiness that words can’t always explain, but love reminds us that some bonds never truly end. In times of grief, we should never have to walk the road alone. This is when a community matters most—when we come together, hold each other close, lift one another up, and find strength in the love we share.

We may not be able to take away the pain, but we can stand beside one another through it. Together, we are stronger, and together, we can help carry the weight when it becomes too heavy for one person to bear.

May God bring comfort to every grieving heart and give us the strength to stand together.

“Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted.” — Matthew 5:4
