🇺🇸 110 FLOORS. 343 HEROES. NEVER FORGOTTEN. 🇺🇸

Today, some of our Mehlville Firefighters participated in the Clayton 9/11 Memorial Stair Climb. This marks the 13th year our members have participated, honoring the 343 FDNY firefighters who made the ultimate sacrifice on September 11, 2001.

It’s a physically challenging and emotional tribute—110 floors climbed in remembrance of those who climbed toward danger while others were escaping it.

We’re proud to continue this tradition of honoring their courage, sacrifice, and memory.

343. We will never forget. 🇺🇸

A special moment at Busch Stadium honoring first responders and remembering those who made the ultimate sacrifice.

We’re especially proud to see Oakville’s own Jake and Don Marler recognized as part of this tribute. Jake now continues that tradition of service as a fellow first responder with the Monarch Fire Protection District.

A powerful tribute to Don’s sacrifice, Jake and his family, and all those who continue to serve their communities and our country.

Never forget. 🇺🇸

Where were you on September 11, 2001? 🇺🇸

For many of us, it’s a moment frozen in time. We remember where we were, who we were with, and the disbelief as we watched the events of that morning unfold.

We also remember what followed. In the face of unimaginable tragedy, Americans came together. Neighbors helped neighbors. Strangers supported one another. First responders ran toward those who needed them most. For a time, the things that divided us seemed much smaller than the things that united us.

Today, 25 years later, we remember the 2,977 lives lost, including 343 FDNY firefighters who made the ultimate sacrifice while answering the call.

May we never forget those we lost, the courage and selflessness shown that day, or the unity that followed.

9.11.01 — Never Forget. 🇺🇸

We invite you to share where you were on September 11, 2001, or a memory from the days that followed.

Do you remember when Labor Day weekend meant the Jerry Lewis MDA Telethon?

For decades, families across America turned on their televisions and watched Jerry Lewis ask us to believe that a few dollars could make a difference.

And America answered.

People called in donations. Children emptied piggy banks. Families gave what they could. Firefighters stood with boots in their hands.

Because behind every dollar was a family hoping for more time, more independence and, someday, a cure.

The television cameras eventually turned off.

The telethon ended.

But muscular dystrophy didn’t.

ALS didn’t.

And the families who need MDA didn’t disappear when the broadcast did.

Today, the way we give may look a little different, but the reason we give hasn’t changed.

This Labor Day weekend, we’re asking our community to help us continue a tradition generations before us helped build by filling our virtual boot.

You don’t have to be standing at an intersection. You don’t have to have cash in your pocket.

You just have to believe, like so many people did all those years ago, that your dollar could be the dollar.

The dollar that helps fund the next breakthrough.
The dollar that gives a family hope.
The dollar that helps someone live longer and more independently.
The dollar that changes everything.

Please help us fill our virtual boot:

The telethon may be part of history.

The mission isn’t.

And until the day that boot is no longer needed, we’ll keep filling it.
