Tyrone May

To the May family, Today, on the 24th anniversary of 9/11, we are remembering the attack on our country. We will never forget. I saw on the news last night, a segment on what our schools are doing to honor the lives that were lost. Families, our country and the world were changed. Students need to know that life is precious. Hate should not be the way to solve the problems we face. I know that time has gone on. I am sure that Tryone's memory is always in your heart. I hold on to the glow...

To the May family,
I have been thinking today about what I was going to write in this letter. The thought came to me as I was walking with a group of neighbors. A young couple is in our group. We were discussing about the events of that day. Our sweet young couple were not born yet. It just hit me. Although they feel sad about the attack, they do not know about the entire nation and world trying to make sense out of that horrific day. They did not feel the cry, sadness and numbness that...

To the May family, I think of your family each Sept. 11. This is the 22nd year of the tragic, senseless attack on our country. I'm not sure you receive these posts but each year when I write to your family, it helps me also. I know you and your family have special memories of Tyrone. God has softened the pain of 9/11 but we will never forget what happened. I pray that you are at peace and that God is alive in your family. Until, next year.....

To the May family, Each year when it reaches Sept. 10th, I think of everyone working, being in school, driving to run an errand, and then going home to rest and think of the next day. I think of everyone going to bed that night, not knowing what horrible event was going to happen. This weighs heavy on my heart and I know it does yours. I pray that your family has found some closure and peace, knowing that Tyrone is in God's hands. Take care May family and I will connect with you next year.

To the May family, Today is the 20th anniversary of the attack. We all reflect back on the events that happened. It seems like it yesterday but also that it was so long ago. I know that your family is not frozen in time. I am sure your family have had wonderful times together! To your family, I pray for peace and healing. I pray that you will always honor and love him. I also, will continue to pray for the victims of 9/11 and our nation. We must stay strong!

To the May family, I sit here at my desk tonight thinking about what I should write to you about. This is the 19th anniversary of the 9/11 attack. Our country is under another attack. This time it is from within. The year 2020 has not been an easy one. We are facing a pandemic, racism, economy, climate changes and an presidential election, along with other issues. The difference of the 2020 attack and the 9/11 attack is unity. Our nation stood up and rallied to defend our country in 2001. In...

Yesterday in Boston they read yours in remembrance of those lives that were taken from us on 9/11. My heart and prayers goes out to your wife, son, and family members. Bro, I know that you are looking down on all on us now, keeping us safe. I will always remember us studying together, running the hallways, and of course the flavor of music you introduced me to. Yes, we were young in college planning on making our mark in the world those days.... YOU DID! I'll never forget you bro.

To the May family, today is the 18th anniversary of the attacks to our country. As I was driving home today, I was listening to our local Christian station on the radio. They shared Billy Graham's Sept. 14, 2001 sermon to our nation. It touched my heart and I hope it does yours. "We've seen so much that brings tears to our eyes and makes us all feel a sense of anger. But God can be trusted, even when life seems at its darkest." God bless the May family. We will never forget.

To the May family, years have passed and things have changed since 2011. One thing that has not changed though, our memories of that morning and the following weeks. One of the questions that we hear is, Where were you on that day? I was teaching a room full of children. I looked down on their sweet faces and wondered what will they go through in their lifetime. I pray that those children will never have to face the tragedy that your family has. Please know that I am thinking of you and...
