Freedom Isn't Free- Remember 9/11

The other day, my wife and I met up with some good friends who were here from out of town. One, who  lives in New Jersey and the other a native Chicagoan and who served our country as a Marine, on which I thank him for his serve in keeping us free.

We went to Naperville IL and so we thought we would go to the River Walk there, and we just so happened upon this memorial of those who died on 9-11.
How ironic! Just days before Obama supports the building of the Mosque two blocks from Ground Zero and  Nancy Pelosi calls for the investigation of who is behind the opposition of the Cordoba Center.

This 9/11 memorial was erected in honor of Dan Shenower, a native Napervillian who died on 9/11 at the Pentagon. And to honor ALL who died that day.
Will Dan parents be investigated?... I'd like to see them try!

I had no idea, though, that the city had erected this a few miles from our home.
