"Never Forget," is the title of my painting, an 18 x 21 oil on hardboard. The image of the firefighter was an actual photo of one of the firefighters on the scene on that ill-fated day. I incorporated the burning tower and oncoming second airplane behind him so that all could be remembered through his gaze and our feelings, forever. I was moved and touched as all Americans were and especially being a Korean War veteran, serving as a medic in that War. I can never forget and my painting stands as a tribute to that and for all Americans and decent minded people
