STATEN ISLAND, NY— The story of 9/11 has been told in many ways. While I may not have lost anyone on that fateful day,you could feel the turmoil and pain throughout the city. Being 10-years-old at the time, I still have a vivid memory of the day.
However, being 10-years-old I did not fully understand the story. That was until I spoke to retired FDNY Batallion Chief Jack Pritchard about the first baseball game at Yankee stadium after Sept. 11,2001.
Jack has been great friends with my father for as long as I could remember. While this article should of be written during the fall months, a story like this one—doesn't need a dateline. It is one that should be told all year round.
