From Fulton County Government

Today Fulton County government joins other jurisdictions and citizens around the country in observance of the 13th Anniversary of the September 11th terrorist attack on U.S. soil. Flags at county facilities are being flown at half-mast and the County website reflects the simple words, “Fulton Remembers”.

Also in honor and in memory of those precious lives that were lost and the first responders who rushed to the aid of so many on 9/11, the County is asking citizens to share their stories, memories and thoughts about what this day means to them on their Facebook and Twitter pages, using the hashtag “Fulton Remembers”. Citizens are encouraged to post photos of loved ones they wish to honor with their comments as a part of the “Fulton Remembers” tribute.
