Alabama Fr. Trecy Division supports 9/11 Tribute The Father Trecy Division was humbled to have many of our brothers along with their lovely families attend the Rocket City Trash Pandas Tribute Night, a new minor league team at their newly built Toyota Stadium in Northern Alabama, on 9/11, remembering those tragic lives lost on that day and honoring all of the first-responder heroes on that day, months after, and continuing to serve. A special USA Amputee Softball Game was played against the local Bearded Warriors organization who routinely walks with our Division in the St. Patrick’s Day Parade. Among our brothers attending was Brother Dave Gray, who in February ended up in the hospital for what at first was considered complications of the flu and was on a ventilator, dialysis, lost his toes due to complications, and was in treatment facilities for more than four months before being released home to continue multiple doctor appointments and therapies. In the picture with this article, he stood from his wheelchair and remains committed to regaining his strength as he continues to serve his church, our brotherhood and the community. In addition, Brother Dan Shaughnessy was there and recently became engaged to his lovely, soon-to-be bride down on the field at a different event. This was a truly special evening. And this was the first time our Brothers had been together since March 14 at our Division’s St. Patrick’s Social. It was a very special night all around in tribute to 9/11 and the opportunity to safely be with many of our brothers again. It truly gives us hope that our bonds remain strong and our desire to overcome Covid is solid and continuing to contribute to the community remains even stronger. New Jersey AOH honors Hibernians lost on 9/11 The Order seeks to ensure all who sacrificed their lives are honored and recognized with Twin Blue Light Display for the 19th anniversary of tragedy. Among the thousands lost in the attack at the World Trade Center on September 11th, 2001, were nine members from the New Jersey AOH and eight members from the New York AOH. Also lost was one member from the Ladies AOH in New York. Vowing that the ultimate sacrifice made by these Hibernians will never be forgotten, the New Jersey State Board asked their members to take one minute on that solemn day and remember the brothers and sister who died in the attack. Larry Prelle, NJ State President, stated, “Eight members from the St. Michaels’ Division 8 of Hudson County and one member from the Pat Torphy Division 2 of Monmouth County, NJ, lost their lives on that tragic day. These men were at work, either responding to the terrorist attack or helping others get out of the buildings safely. I was incredibly pleased that the logistical issues were worked out for the Tribute Lights and they were lit on September 11th. I would like to recognize the Tunnel to Towers Foundation, Mayor Jimmy Davis of Bayonne, NJ, and Mayor Tony Perry of Middletown, NJ, (along with others) who stepped up to the plate to make sure the two blue lights were in the sky on September 11th.” ‘Solemn Reminder’ To commemorate the 20th anniversary of the attack on our nation, the New Jersey Ancient Order of Hibernians designed a commemorative symbol honoring members who perished on that infamous day at the World Trade Center complex. HIS EMINENCE, PATRICK CARDINAL O'DONNELL OF IRELAND The symbol created is similar to the state logo recognizing September 11th and the Subscription price of $10.00 included in the organization’s dues. Periodical postage paid at West Caldwell, NJ and nine Hibernians from NJ who lost their lives on that tragic day. This image is a solemn additional mailing offices USPS 373340 reminder that we have not and will not forget our brothers.
