During the ceremony, Mayor Santos delivered remarks and remembered the American lives lost in the 9/11 tragedy that occurred 21 years ago and extended his gratitude to Martin Nystrom for his service. The Town of Kearny gathers every year on 9/11 to pause, reflect, honor the memory of those lives lost, and remember the survivors that suffer because of this tragic moment in our history which we will never forget.
