Freeholder Lillian Burry was not able to attend the 9-11 Memorial at Mount Mitchill yesterday morning, the first time ever she has missed it. So for those who missed hearing her reading the poem she wrote for the occasion, as well as for the Colts Neck Memorial:
We Remember Them
In the opening of buds and in the warmth of summer,
We Remember Them
When we are weary and in need of strength,
We Remember Them
When we are lost and sick of heart,
We Remember Them
When we have joys we yearn to share,
We Remember Them
So long as we live, they too shall live
For now they are a part of us,
As We Remember Them.
by Lillian Burry
