In the 1970's, we wore Prisoner of War (P.O.W.) bracelets. Today, we also keep others in our memories; Victims of Terrorism and Military Casualties. To keep the memory alive of those who have died at the hands of terrorists or fighting terrorism, we now also wear Memorial Bracelets. People from all over the country are wearing bracelets from Memorial Bracelets located at www.memorialbracelets.com for their own very personal reasons. Below are some of the stories that we have received.

For My First Cousin Brian Cannizzaro
My first cousin, Brian Cannizzaro, was a fireman in Ladder 101 in Redhook, Brooklyn. He was 30 years old and left behind a beautiful wife, Jackie, and a one-year-old son, Christopher. Brian was supposed to be off on Sept. 11, but he was remodeling a house for his family and he thought that he could use the overtime. Brian died with six other members of Ladder 101. His body was recovered on November 11, 2001 and his family misses him a great deal. Brian is survived by his parents, two brothers and their wives as well as his son, wife and many, many heartbroken aunts, uncles, cousins and friends.
