Letter of Thanks To La Junta Community & 9/11 Committee

November 25, 2021

From: Susan Rosenblum, Coral Springs Florida

Dear citizens of La Junta Colorado, Otero and Bent Counties, The La Junta Chamber of Commerce, and the 9/11 Committee,

I cannot begin to express my overwhelming feelings of gratitude upon receiving your beautiful Tribute to my Son Joshua "Rosie" Rosenblum.

So often I have been asked "how did, do you get through this unspeakable nightmare?" My answer was and continues being the same. Being touched by people who reached out to me; strangers who live thousands of miles from Florida. It is this that gives me the strength to keep going. That an individual, and in this case an entire community took the time to gather the information and picture of Josh, prepare this beautiful tribute, and then "track" me down allows me to believe that goodness continues to exist.

I had hoped 9/11 would have provided us with the lesson that hatred and mistrust can and did manifest itself in this unspeakable way. Unfortunately, this has not been the case. The divisiveness in our great country and around the world has only grown worse. And then I received your letter containing so many signatures and your commitment to never forget the 9/11 victims. It not only touched my heart and soul, but has given me hope for the future.

Saying Thank You doesn't express my feelings of gratitude, but they are the only words I have. I hope you will accept this small donation to help in purchasing the rescue equipment for the local Sheriff's Department. Please know your kindness greatly added to the things I am grateful for.

Wishing you all a Happy, Peaceful, and Joyous Holiday.

Best,

Susan Rosenblum
