| Moved by the scenes of pain and suffering displayed in the media on September 11, 2001, and never wanting the tragic day to be forgotten, in December of 2001, Barb Jack, the creator/chairwoman of the WTC 9/11 PEN-T MEMORIALS, INC., set a goal to have erected a ground zero displayed WTC 9/11 Memorial, in each state in the USA and DC. In May of 2002, George Ecker, was asked to serve with a committee of volunteers to obtain building sites, materials, labor and cash donors and to obtain the much needed ground zero debris for each of the 51 site memorials. Paul VanderHeyden, joined the committee as building project manager in 2004. Thanks to the efforts of a very active committee, the green bay mayor, park committee and council members, and very generous donors, on June 1, 2005, the first 34 feet high, WTC 9/11 PEN-T memorial will be dedicated in Green Bay, Wisconsin at a 12 noon ceremony, with a USAF flyover, release of 21 white doves, music by the Vic Ferrari band, and special guest speakers. |
