Listener responses: your memories of 9/11

The Takeaway

All week we’ve been talking about 9/11, and how we’re remembering the events of that day a decade later. We’ve asked listeners across the country for their memories and recollections of September 11, 2001, and received many stories and experiences. We’re sharing some of our listeners’ stories. John Vigiano is a former New York City firefighter who lost two sons in the Twin Towers. Theresa Mickelwait is a member of the United States Air Force.
