9-11 Attack On America Contact Info By Damon Marturion New Business News Staff Writer I cannot find the words to express my complex mixture of feelings of sadness and anger concerning the 9-11 Attack on America. My soul yearns as an American and aches with the loss that we suffered as individuals and collectively. It is amazing to me, as I watch broadcasts of the events as they unfold that I - and most all Americans - are only, "1 click away," from being victimized directly by this act of terrorism. This is to say that, if you did not know someone who either is missing or witnessed the event, it is likely that you know someone who knows someone. My heartfelt prayers are with all victims, their friends and family. As helpless as we feel, I hope that the following important contact information will be helpful to other Americans as we survive the horrific events of this day.
