We had good weather this year for the ceremony, and that may have increased the large number in attendance. The NCPD honor guard arrived, flags hoisted, pipers puffing, about 7 p.m. With admirable organization, the ceremony ended at 7:50 p.m. Folding chairs were provided, the high school band played, and students helped much with the distribution and collection of candles. I had to discard my photos taken after sundown. Photos from better photographers will appear elsewhere.

The above view looks north on Seaman's Neck Road. The high school is on the right.

Five alumni lost their lives during the attack on the World Trade Center.

Many excellent photos can be found on the Seaford 9.11 Memorial Facebook page. Was the photographer the young man wearing his cap peak backwards?
