This was the sight in one PG staffer's Rockaway, NY neighborhood this morning. A crowd gathered around Fireman's Memorial Park in Bell Harbor, where many FDNY firefighters live, to remember their friends and neighbors who passed away on September 11, 2001. Their names were read, and their families placed roses on the monument.
Providing the soundtrack to this annual memorial was Aerial Acoustics, comprised of two phenomenal players in Dorothy Wagoner and Dennis Smith. Dorothy's one-off Taylor is a short scale, custom-color 914c featuring an Englemann spruce top and Indian rosewood sides and back, and was specially approved by Bob Taylor himself.
Take a moment today, in your own way, to remember the lives lost and sacrifices made, and play a little guitar in honor.
