Remembering 9/11 in Oyster Bay

The anniversary of the 9/11 attacks at Town Sept. 11 Memorial.

Written by Edward Robinson

It was a beautiful, clear day Wednesday just as it was 12 years ago.

The warm weather made it a picture perfect day at TOBAY beach, but the Town' of Oyster Bay's Sept. 11 Memorial, which is also located at the beach served as a somber reminder of those we lost. 

The flag in front of the memorial flew at half staff while many smaller flags and flowers were placed near the names of those connected to Oyster Bay who  died in the attacks.

Some came to TOBAY to see the memorial, while many  goers also quietly filed by, but all came to honor the victims and remember a terrible day.
