This is an excellent idea......and to have come from a teenager....just
think!!!!!!!! An idea from the son of a 9/11 firefighter... so before
you delete this, just remember that this is a 14 year-old boy who lost
his father on September 11th All you're asked to do is type, point and
click. He's got a really great idea. Thanks!


Hello, I lost my Dad on September 11th; he was Chief Edward Geraghty,
Battalion 9, New York City Fire Department. He lost his life with many
other heroes that day, victims of the terrorists. Firefighters from all
over have come to the aid and rescue of the tragedy in New York and
Washington , D. C.


Many firefighters lost their lives to save someone else's. The truth of
the matter is, they do this every single day. They truly are heroes. I
know many people feel helpless, especially ! those w ho live far from
NYC and D.C. We all want to do something to show our appreciation, our
support! I think we can... In honor of the bravery, courage and
determination of American firefighters, there should be a day in our
nation to celebrate and appreciate their hard-work and never-ending
passion for saving lives. I think we should honor all those other heroes
who still live today.


I'm starting a petition for a National Firefighters Day. Will you help
make every September 11th 'National Firefighters Day'? Please join me!


Thank you, Connor Geragh ty, age 14, Rockville Centre , New York (I Love
U, DAD!!)
