Northridge Medical Center employees will gather on the front lawn of the hospital at 9 a.m. on Friday to commemorate the 10-year anniversary of the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11, 2001.
The public is invited and special invitations have been sent to local public safety officials.

“The hurt and devastation that occurred on this day are still prevalent in our society,” commented organizer Carlie Jo Smith. “Northridge wanted to have a time for our employees, public safety officials and the general public to honor those who were lost and to give special thanks to our public safety officials.

“Individuals are welcomed to share a word or two about ‘where they were’ when they heard the news. We will also have a moment of silence, a short prayer and recognition of special attendees.”

The staff at Northridge Medical Center will be dressed in red, white and blue as one way of exhibiting collaborative patriotism.

The event is free and open to the public. Guests are invited to join the medical center staff after the event for coffee in the hospital cafeteria.
