In addition to regular news and feature stories, the Floral Park Dispatch welcomes stories about the victims and heroes of the Sept. 11 terrorist attack. However, out of respect to those grieving, we have chosen not to contact any victims' families but invite friends and relatives to share stories of their loved ones with us. Please do not hesitate to contact us at 747-8282, extension 164, with poems, letters, stories and photos. We will surely make room for your tributes in future publications.

The Floral Park Dispatch once again offers condolences to the numerous families this tragedy directly affected. May God bless you during such difficult times.
