[sent September 11th]
Today is September 11th. On this day in 2001 two Aherns were lost in the
World Trade Center. One, Jeremiah Joseph Ahern, was a first generation
Irish-American who worked in the New York State Department of Taxation and
Finance on the 86th floor of 2 World Trade Center. The other, Brian G.
Ahearn, was a Lieutenant in FDNY Engine Company 230. Another Ahern who
went to work in New York City that bright September morning was NYPD
Detective Gerry Ahearn who spent the day evacuating people from the area
and searching for bodies. You can read more about these three on our 9/11
Memorial page at http://homepages.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~aherns/ah9-11.htmhttp://homepages.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~aherns/ah9-11.htm
