Cochranville Fire Company Plans 9/11 Dedication


This important announcement from the Community Courier:
The Cochranville Fire Company will dedicate and permanently display the World Trade Center artifact received from the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey. The ceremony will take place on Thursday, Sept. 8, at 7 p.m.

In preparation for displaying the steel and plaque, which was partially paid for from donations made at the July carnival, the fire company modified its memorial dedicated to firefighter Chief Wayne Yost, who died in 1999 in the line of duty.

The memorial is designed to remind those passing the station at 3135 Limestone Road, Cochranville, of the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks and the loss of life at the World Trade Center, the Pentagon and Shanksville.
