In Memory of Rachel Tamares

May we never forget that tragic day five years ago.  May we never forget all of the innocent lives so tragically and unneccesarily cut short.  May we never forget that each and every one of these victims were someone's mother, father, son, daughter, brother, sister, aunt, uncle, cousin, or friend.  May we never forget all of the heroes- firefighters, policemen, EMTs, and citizens that saved lives that day.  May we never forget the terrorists that were and STILL ARE trying to murder our people and destroy our great nation. 

May we never forget Rachel Tamares.........

I searched and searched and was not able to find very much personal information on Rachel Tamares.  That does not mean her life was any less valuable or important to those who knew and loved her.

Rachel Tamares, 30, married John Bruno when she was 16 years old.  She was a traditional and devoted mother to their two sons, Jason, 11, and Robert, 6.  She was so committed to her family that she took her mother and younger sister in to her already crowded two bedroom Bronx apartment until they could find another place.

Rachel began working for the Aon Corporation, located in the World Trade Center, when she was 18 years old.  She was known as a responsible and "fastidious" worker.  Friends and co-workers described her as having a positive outlook towards work, friends, and all aspects of her life.

Rachel Tamares did not have to die.  Her husband did not have to lose his wife.  Her boys did not have to be left motherless.  Our country did not have to endure the pain and suffering inflicted upon each and every one of us.  But we did.......

MAY WE NEVER FORGET
