911 Memorial

This memorial began with children. For twelve years, youth volunteers in Davis County raised money for it, and in 2013 they unveiled a bronze firefighter cradling a child at the USU Botanical Center. Its plaques hold three Utahns lost that morning: Mary Alice Wahlstrom of Kaysville and her daughter Carolyn Beug, aboard the first plane into the North Tower after moving twin girls into an East Coast college, and Brady Howell, a young Utah State graduate killed at the Pentagon. Later plaques name 129 Utahns fallen in the wars that followed.
