9/11: Ten Years Later

People in the communities of Tredyffrin and Easttown will mark the tenth anniversary of the 9/11 attacks on the United States in ways ranging from quiet reflection to continued public service.

There will be a ceremony to mark the anniversary this evening at 5:45 Wilson Farm Park prior to the rescheduled Cool Beans summer concert.

Millions of people across the country were affected by the 9/11 attacks. Some experienced the tragic loss of a loved one, some found an inspiring way to help those who were grieving, and others experienced a political awakening. 

To help reflect the endless diversity of their experiences, Patch looked out across our sites to pull together 911 snapshots of everyday Americans whose lives were changed by the events of that day.

From across the country, TE Patch site and hundreds of others captured the faces, keepsakes, memorials, ceremonies, flags, fund-raisers, deployments and the still-raw emotions that followed the attacks.

Taken together they create a powerful mosaic that is large in scope but often deeply personal. Click through to see how your neighbors near and far marked the day.

Check back here at TE.Patch.Com throughout the day for some of the stories of the people who make our community great.
