L'Dor Va-Dor remembers and honors the memories of those who died in the 9/11 terrorist attacks at the World Trade Center, the Pentagon, and in Shanksville, Pa and in terrorism acts throughout America and the world.
On September 11, 2001:
- American Airlines Flight 11 hit the North tower of the World Trade Center in New York City at 8:46 am
- United Airlines Flight 175 hit the South tower of the World Trade Center in New York City at 9:02 am
- American Airlines Flight 77 hit the Pentagon in Washington, DC at 9:37 am
- United Airlines Flight 93 crashed in Shanksville, PA at 10:03 am, averted from its intended target by brave passengers
Let us take a moment and consider and mourn all the lives lost and all the lives affected on this tragic day 22 years ago and never forget. We honor the bravery and strength of all those who came forward to save others and help to rebuild following this tragedy. Thank you.

We will meet outside of the restaurant on the east side by the water. Please bring bread or bread crumbs of any type to "cast away into the water".
