At the dedication service for Monmouth County’s 9/11 memorial at Mount Mitchill, Atlantic Highlands, were friends and family members of victims as well as local dignitaries who placed carnations on a piece of metal (above and below) from the World Trade Center that will be part of the memorial. At left, a colorguard from Naval Weapons Station Earle takes part in the opening services of the ceremony. Pictured at the service, opposite page, are (clockwise from top) Trudy Parton and granddaughter Courtney, 2, of Rumson; state Sen. Joseph Palaia; and Grace Esposito of Marlboro, whose husband died in the attack on the Trade Center.
