🇺🇸 NEVER FORGET 🇺🇸 SEPTEMBER 11, 2001

Today marks 25 years since the attacks of September 11, 2001.

The South Hackensack Police Department pauses to remember the nearly 3,000 lives lost, the first responders who courageously ran toward danger, and the countless families forever changed by that day.

We honor the bravery, sacrifice, and unity shown in the face of unimaginable tragedy. May we continue to remember those we lost and stand beside those who carry their memory every day.

25 Years Later , We Will Never Forget. 🇺🇸
