Meg Geise [e] I never had the honor of meeting Kevin but I wish the same for his family as everyone does; peace of mind and only the best of memories. I've become friends with Kevin's nephew and also read the Firehouse book and through this I realize what a wonderful man he was and what a tremendous loss it is for his loved ones to not have him here. My prayers and admiration to Kevin's family and friends.. may God bless all of your lives. Monday, July 14th 2008 - 07:20:41 PM

1LT Ronnie Matthews, US Army [e] To the family of MR. Bracken and his friends. I would like to say I give you each a prayer each day and think of your fallen hero often. I was a Red Cross volunteer and attended Kevin's services. I joined the US Army when I left the City to come back home. I am in the militarybecause of those events and I have told my Wife and Kids about Mr. Bracken several times. When the movie came out I took my children and wife to see it. We all cried and thought of all those lost on that day. I wanted to let you know that a family here in TN pray's for you up in heaven and your family here on earth. To a Hero I send this salute! 1LT Ronnie Matthews, US Army Wednesday, August 16th 2006 - 07:47:17 PM

Rene May [e] I am a Fire Fighter in Alberta, Canada. The barbaric events of 9-11 seem distant, yet so close as I close my eyes and play back the video of the towers collapsing onto so many of my Brothers. I too will NEVER forget no matter what! I am humbled by the dedication of my Brothers as they performed their duties to save lives that were unsaveable and perish themselves in the process. I did not know a single one of you but when I saw you die I cried for you and prayed that all of you be carried home by the hand of our true and living God. May God bless your families, and your home. Revenge is mine says the Lord, so lets continue to serve those less fortunate the best way we know how and thank God for our freedom to choose forgiveness over hatred!
