The Palmyra Police Department was honored to join retired Police Chief Richard Dreby, Borough of Palmyra, Palmyra Fire Department., Riverton Fire Department, and Palmyra Cinnaminson Riverton Emergency Medical Service for this year’s 9/11 Memorial Service.Together, our community gathered to remember the nearly 3,000 lives lost on September 11, 2001, and to honor the extraordinary courage and sacrifice of the first responders, service members, and everyday citizens who answered the call during one of our nation’s darkest days.As Police, Fire, and EMS stood together, we were reminded of the bravery, selflessness, and unity that emerged in the face of tragedy.We will continue to honor those who made the ultimate sacrifice, those whose lives were forever changed, and the first responders who continue to suffer from the lasting effects of that day.We remember. We honor. We will never forget.
