We Pause to Remember
It still feels like it was yesterday when the bright, sunny skies of a September morning, our nation came under attack. Lives were lost. Families were shattered and we still mourn for those that will never return home. Time has moved on, but we will never forget the men and women who ran full speed into the face of terror, without a second thought, ready to save lives. Each year, the anniversary of September 11 comes and we pause to remember.

But we know we’re not alone. We meet people all the time who work just as hard, just as long. Blue collar, white collar. Hard work doesn’t discriminate.
We all put in the time because that’s what the job calls for.

This Ain’t No Third Wave Coffee
