Michelle, Mazza
My prayers and thoughts go out to all the victims. No one should have gone through that. To the familys of the victims, I know it's hard but stay strong and know that there are people out there thinking of you.

Rachel, Boston
I cannot express the many emotions I've felt in the past few days. It makes me angry that there are "people" out there capable of carrying out such a vicious, horrific act of violence. It makes me sad to see and hear stories of the many families and friends that have been affected by the loss of their loved ones. It breaks my heart to know there are still many missing, and that some may never be found. It makes me happy to see our country come together in a crisis such as this and come out with a positive attitude. To all of the people involved with the rescue, and to those that died trying - you are truly heroes and your brave efforts will always be admired and remembered. God Bless America and God give us the strength to get through this together.

Danielle, Weymouth
My prayers and thoughts go out to everyone, especially those effected by this horrific tragedy. Stay strong for our lost loved ones.

Tom, Shrewsbury
Words are not enough to express the sympathy that is in all of our hearts for those impacted by this act of cowardness and evil. America will never be the same. I, along with many people, wish that there is a quick, forceful and decisive response to this action, but this will not undo the damage already done. My brother worked down there and he luckily got out before the buildings collapsed. However he witnessed one of the planes colliding into the WTC and he seen people falling to their deaths. He is shaken, but happy to be safe. He said to me that he seen things he had never dreamed possible. We are all affected by this, but we need to keep those at "ground 0" in New York and Washington in our thoughts and prayers.

Lisa, Hingham
To all that have lost loved ones in the midst of this tragedy, may loving memories of the past help you through this difficult time.

Kristina, Boston
My prayers go out to those who lost loved ones. I am proud of our country for standing together, strong, united and determined. In the face of tragedy, we have shown how great our country really is. GOD BLESS AMERICA!

Maritza Alicea, Roslindale
My heart goes out to those of you that have that lost families and friends. I have been praying day and night and everytime this tragedy comes into my mind. I have no words to make you feel any better, but I will continue praying for all of you. Leave everything in gods hands I am sure he will pull through for all of you and us. Once again my sympathy are with all of you.

Elaine D. Bottaro, Saugus

Bottaro, Saugus, MA

Bruce Armstrong, Brookville, IN
We, at the Brookville (Indiana) Church of Christ, have been and will continue to pray for the comfort and consolation of the families of all victims. We can only imagine how difficult it will be in the coming days, weeks, and months. We will keep praying that God is with you, offering "the peace that passes all understanding." May God bless you and keep you safe.

Dawn, Boston
First and foremost my deepest sympathies go out to each and every person who was directly affected by these henious acts. I also want to add that I am ashamed of the Massport officials for having such a horrible security system which allowed these terrible people to create such destruction. Without a doubt if they took more time to institute a stronger security checkpoint and developed a stronger training program for the people who man them such a tragedy would not be possible. I am completely ashamed to know that I live in the city of Boston knowing that all of this terrorism originated here. Massport is partly to blame for the thousands of lives lost and it sickens me to know it took such an enormous tragedy for them to realize how weak there securtiy measures were. I was a manager for a business in the airport in such a capacity that I had first hand knowledge of how weak there security systems are, I saw this with my own eyes! Not only in the international terminal but 2 other non-international terminals as well. God rest the souls of those lost and may we somehow find the strength we need to get ourselves, our families and our country to somehow find closure to this horrible event.
Respectfully Submitted, Dawn M. Doyle
