9/11




These are my grandparents, Larry and Diane Hartman. They have lived in Springville, Utah for many years. They were getting ready for the work day when they heard of the terrorist attacks. My grandma was in the bedroom when she felt like something was wrong and went into the living room, where my grandpa was watching the TV. Both of them clearly remember the shock that came after what had seemed to be an accidental plane crash happened again. They both found it hard to eat breakfast.
My grandma recalls that at work that day, everyone had a hard time working, including her. There was an elephant in the room. Everyone wanted to talk about it, but at the same time, no one did.
It's amazing that even after all these years, the little details are still so clear in their minds.
