The most heart-wrenching discovery was that a silver object melted onto the cross' left side was the remains of a firefighter's jacket who died in the blast. Firefighters say the fire-resistant jacket turned silver and took on the look and consistency of metal when it encountered extreme heat and fire. Now, it is wrapped around the left arm of the cross. I just re-read this article, and this flew out at me. I had never read this before. Makes me all teary all-over again, and more grateful this was found and memorialized for our WTC heroes.

Outstanding story.

But isn't this going to be offensive to a few other religions?

Thank you so much for this post, classy! I wondered what had happened to the cross. It's fitting that it will be a memorial for the heroes of the FDNY.
Hey, guys and gals! I stopped in here for a minute, saw this, and thought you might enjoy it. Brought tears...again. I was wondering if one of you could do that voodoo that you do so well with your bump list.

<< For the terrorists, terror is their faith. For us, God is our faith," said Silecchia, a New Jersey man who is quick to give a Christian witness. "Who's going to win? God is. He's going to have the last word. And he did here," he said of the cross pulled from the terrorists' aftermath. >>
Amen to that!
