‘May they never be forgotten’: Easthampton remembers 9/11

Daily Hampshire Gazette: “Easthampton refuses to let the 9/11 attacks sink to the back of our memory,” said Mayor Nicole LaChapelle, who then recited the lyrics of Bruce Springsteen’s song “The Rising,” which tells the story of a firefighter climbing a staircase in the World Trade Center to rescue those inside.

Both Norris and LaChapelle said that along with the veterans and former members of the Police and Fire departments, they were pleased to see the number of families and young people that attended.
