Incredible Inspiration

Shawn Lindstrom - FDNY
    Remembering Sept. 11, 2001

Like all Americans we remember what we were doing that September morning ten years ago today. For our family it was personal. Michael's younger brother, Shawn, was a NYC paramedic at the time, as was his girlfriend Doreen - we were frantic. As it turned out, it had been Shawn's day off and he had been out of the city. Doreen (now Shawn's wife) had helped triage the injured with so many other medical personnel. Unfortunately, Shawn's dream of becoming a NYC firefighter happened all too quickly. He was called up sooner than he expected, because so many went down sooner than God intended ... We Will Never Forget.
