Another great email from my sister. Hope you all enjoy.
This is the first that I have heard of this monument to those who died
on 9/11. I looked it up in Google and it certainly is there on
the New Jersey side of the Hudson River, in line with the Statue of
Liberty.
Russian Gift To The US. I had never heard of this before
receiving this e-mail.
Wonder why the press didn't report it?
This is the "TEAR DROP" made and installed
by the Russians to honor those who died on 9/11
and a statement against terrorism. It is very
impressive. The tear drop is lined up with the Statue of Liberty.
Gift from the people of Russia...
"Monument to the struggle against world terrorism, artist Zurab
Tsereteli"
Names of the persons killed on 9/11 are inscribed
on the base. The base is like the Vietnam Memorial wall.
It was a cold and windy day but well worth the drive to see. It
is down in the shipping yards across from "The Lady".
