Dear Editor: Sept. 11, 2001, will always live in America. America was attacked on that day, and 9/11 is the same 911 we call for help. The working men and women paid the ultimate price. They died while on the job, as did those who answer the 911 call for help to save them, they also died. Just as you have a Central Park in New York City, so you must have a place for them, where they all died that same day 911 ... a place for their families, friends, New Yorkers and tourists to pray and reflect on that day, 9/11. The World Trade Centers occupied acres of ground. So a circle should be made on that same ground, made up of omni stone markers for each victim with their birth date on it. We all know their passing date, 9/11/01. In the middle of the circle should exist a big fountain. Under the fountain mechanism, a white light, a blue light and a red light would be installed so that when the water is on you have the beautiful red, white and blue lights on the water. Over the fountain, a grate would be placed so people can throw money into the fountain. The money would be for the New York City police, fire and medics and Port Authority police. For them, 9/11 is them. Kathy Sherred, McKeesport
