As we mark 22 years since the September 11th attacks, please take a moment of silence and reflection to remember those who died on that day and to keep their families and loved ones in your thoughts. With respect and sorrow, we post this list of our CWA brothers and sisters who lost their lives on September 11, 2001.
Sadly, we also mourn the loss of our CWA members who have died since that day as a result of 911-related illnesses.
