Remember Forever

9-11 hit us all as a nation. We remember where we were at the exact moment we heard the news, we remember how it felt, we remember all affected and we remember how we responded.


This day is always a day we remember. We are so grateful to be a part of a community where we take the time to pay our respects and do even a small memorial for the day. Our kids attend Pieper HS, as well as the surrounding schools. Last year was our first year participating in this. So powerful. Haven't heard about it? Let me tell you...


Every year, we gather as a community - students, sports, students of the surrounding schools in the area (Stone Oak up to Bulverde), teachers, staff, administrators, friends, family, fire departments, police officers, veterans, active duty. We gather at the football field and we pay our respects. We hear the history, we say a prayer, we have a moment of silence. Then, as the music plays, we hear the names of all that have fallen that day. All of those that lost their lives. While this happens, we start the climb. The 2,200 Stairs, the 110 flights that the firefighters climbed. The fire fighters attend the event in FULL GEAR and climb. We, as a community do our best to do it along with them. It is powerful and something my family and I will forever honor.


Would you join us next year? Not local? How about in your own community?

Really appreciated your post about Remember Forever and the way you reflect on legacy and memory through the family‑business lens it’s both moving and meaningful. While I was preparing for an online exam in business ethics and family enterprises, I found myself wondering whether I should can I pay someone do my online class just to manage the heavy reflection component. It reminded me how thoughtful insight and structured support go together

I like how the blog focuses on appreciating moments that often pass by without us noticing. Spending time with the people who matter, taking photos and creating memories really does make a difference when you look back later. Sometimes we rush through life and forget how valuable simple experiences can be. For anyone working on projects or research tied to these kinds of meaningful topics, using Publication Support Services can help with organizing ideas and presenting them clearly, but the real value still comes from the personal stories and moments we choose to hold onto.

This post really captures the importance of cherishing lasting memories and the connections that shape us. It reminded me of how reflection plays a role even in academics like when I sought online Business Studies exam help from Take My Online Exam Pro, which encouraged me to analyze long-term decisions with deeper understanding.

The spirit of community and dedication in that 2,200-stair climb is truly inspiring. My commitment is to ultra-marathons, which demand intense focus and time, but my massive final dissertation has made training impossible. I'm currently seeking the best dissertation writing service uk to manage the academic burden, allowing me to finally dedicate the necessary time to my passion and honor my commitment to these challenging endurance events.

"Your 'Remember Forever' post about automotive legacies resonates deeply! As a PhD candidate documenting my family's automotive repair history, I became so immersed in archival photos that my dissertation introduction stalled. Using a dissertation introduction writing service allowed me to properly frame this intergenerational research while continuing to preserve fading memories—sometimes honoring both academic standards and family heritage requires strategic support."
