Speaker 1: Up next The Truth with Lisa Both part of the
Speaker 1: Welcome Back to the Truth with Lisa Booth. I can't
Speaker 1: believe that we are coming up on the twentieth anniversary
Speaker 1: of one of America's darkest days, almost twenty years ago,
Speaker 1: September eleventh, two thousand one. We all remember the deadliest
Speaker 1: terror attack in history, leaving two thousand, nine seventy seven
Speaker 1: people dead. It was an act of war by Al
Speaker 1: Qaeda terrorists. The images of people jumping to their desk
Speaker 1: from the burning Twin Towers will forever be etched memories.
Speaker 1: We will never forget what those Islamist terrorists did to
Speaker 1: our fellow Americans. But what stood out on that darkest
Speaker 1: day was the bravery of so many Americans, ordinary Americans
Speaker 1: risking their lives to save others they didn't know if
Speaker 1: they would make it as the buildings burned down around them,
Speaker 1: Or the passengers on United Airlines Flight ninety three who
Speaker 1: fought back to take the plane down. One of those men,
Speaker 1: Tom Burnett, called his wife to say, I know we're
Speaker 1: all going to die. There's three of us who are
Speaker 1: going to do something about it. I love you, honey.
Speaker 1: Can you imagine being Tom Burnett being that brave or
Speaker 1: receiving that phone call that his wife did hearing those words.
Speaker 1: We all know what happened next, the plane crash in Shanksville, Pennsylvania,
Speaker 1: rather than it's intended target. Tom Burnett's a hero. So
Speaker 1: many ordinary Americans were heroes that day. The first responders
Speaker 1: who ran into danger to save lives, seeing the unknown
Speaker 1: in front of them, knowing that they could die, but
Speaker 1: they ran into danger. The first responders who ran into
Speaker 1: danger to save lives, who gave everything. Three hundred and
Speaker 1: forty three New York City firefighters, twenty three New York
Speaker 1: City Police officers, thirty seven Port Authority officers all lost
Speaker 1: their lives, and thousands have died since due to health
Speaker 1: complications because they ran into the fire. They ran into
Speaker 1: danger to save lives, to risk it all. And then
Speaker 1: there were heroes like Frank Siller, who has dedicated his
Speaker 1: life to make a difference, for the heroes who gave everything,
Speaker 1: For the heroes who risked their health to risk their
Speaker 1: lives to save people. Frank's brother, Stephen Stiller, was one
Speaker 1: of those brave firefighters who ran into the danger to
Speaker 1: save lives. He died that day. He didn't have to
Speaker 1: do it. He had already finished a shift. He was
Speaker 1: actually on his way to play golf with his brothers
Speaker 1: when he had heard about a plane hitting the North
Speaker 1: Tower of the World Trade Center. But he chose to
Speaker 1: go and save lives, to risk his own life, to
Speaker 1: give his life in honor of Stephen's memory, Frank Stiller
Speaker 1: started the Tunnel to Towers Foundation, a nonprofit dedicated to
Speaker 1: honoring Stephen's sacrifice as well as a sacrifice of so
Speaker 1: many military men and women and our first responders, as
Speaker 1: well as wounded in military men and women. In one alone,
Speaker 1: Tunnel to Towers Foundation will deliver two hundred mortgage payoffs
Speaker 1: in mortgage free homes to our nation's heroes and their families,
Speaker 1: two hundred in one year alone. No one does more
Speaker 1: to honor heroes and pay it forward than Frank Stiller
Speaker 1: and the Tunnel to Tower Foundations. He is truly attack
Speaker 1: estimate to a purpose driven life, and I have had
Speaker 1: the honor of meeting him as well. He has a
Speaker 1: tremendous human being, one of the kindest guys you will
Speaker 1: ever meet in your entire life, and it is an
Speaker 1: absolute honor to have him as my guest on this episode,
Speaker 1: on such a special episode, as we remember the following,
Speaker 1: as we never forget, as we honor those who paid
Speaker 1: the ultimate sacrifice, like his brother Steven Stiller, who was
Speaker 1: a hero who gave his life to try to save others. So, Frank,
Speaker 1: you are such a testament to living a purpose driven life.
Speaker 1: Tunnel to Towers has helped so many people. You are
Speaker 1: also an exceptionally kind man. I have had the honor
Speaker 1: to meet you at Fox H so it is an
Speaker 1: honor to have you on the show. Thank you, Lisa,
Speaker 1: and I appreciate the fact that you do have me
Speaker 1: on because part of the reason why I'm walking this
Speaker 1: swalk seven miles to make sure that people listen and
Speaker 1: they don't forget what happened twenty years ago. And that's
Speaker 1: so crazy. I I just I can't even believe that
Speaker 1: we're coming up on twenty years since Timber eleven two one,
Speaker 1: almost three thousand lives were taken by al Qaeda terrorists.
Speaker 1: I was in high school. I still remember seeing everything
Speaker 1: unfold on TV, just in complete disbelief and fear, uh
Speaker 1: and just so worried about the future of the country.
Speaker 1: Take us back to that day for you. What was
Speaker 1: that day like for you? You know, Lisia, I was
Speaker 1: in my kitchen waiting for my brother Stephen, New York
Speaker 1: City firefighters to come to my house. We were going
Speaker 1: to play golf with my brother Rush, my brother George.
Speaker 1: It was you know, everyone remembers it was maybe the
Speaker 1: best day ever weatherwise, so we were all excited. But then,
Speaker 1: you know, it all changed in a moment's notice. The
Speaker 1: towel was hit. My brother heard it. He was on
Speaker 1: his way home from Squad one in Brooklyn. He was
Speaker 1: on his radio. He heard it, turned around and went
Speaker 1: back to his fire house and got his gear and
Speaker 1: drilled to the mouth of Brooklyn Battery Tunnel where he
Speaker 1: was closer to security reasons. So you know, and I
Speaker 1: witness told me that his car came to a screeching
Speaker 1: hall and and what he did was he strapped the
Speaker 1: gearran and ran into the tunnel. And you know, we
Speaker 1: didn't know he did that on nine eleven. So you
Speaker 1: asked me how what what happened that day? And I
Speaker 1: will tell you that I was uh frantic, uh, not
Speaker 1: knowing what happened, not knowing that Stephen got there and night,
Speaker 1: but I believed that he would figure a way to
Speaker 1: get there, because that's just the type of person he was,
Speaker 1: but not just him. That's with fire fighters and cops
Speaker 1: and men and women uniform do all the time. They're
Speaker 1: running right into danger. And I tried to piece the
Speaker 1: day together, and finally I got a call by five
Speaker 1: fighter that lived a couple of doors away from my
Speaker 1: brother Stephen, and his name is Richie Obemyah, and he said,
Speaker 1: frank I wanted to let you know that Steven's on
Speaker 1: the list of missing five fighters. And I said, okay,
Speaker 1: rich thank you. I said, I've been trying to call
Speaker 1: him all day and without success, and uh, you know,
Speaker 1: I was hoping that, you know, he was just not
Speaker 1: answering because obvious reasons. They were fighting the biggest fire
Speaker 1: and the largest rescue mission ever. So he goes, I,
Speaker 1: Frankie know it's really bad, Danny. I know, rich I said,
Speaker 1: I know, I could see it. I've been talking to
Speaker 1: a lot of firefighters. I know it's really bad. He goes, no,
Speaker 1: Frankie's bad. I said, rich I know it's bad. He goes, no,
Speaker 1: frank it's bad. Nobody's coming home. And uh, I was.
Speaker 1: You know, that's when the real realization was set in
Speaker 1: and I went in the other room. I had my
Speaker 1: sisters there, my uh, two of my brothers, my son,
Speaker 1: my family, and I had to go in the other
Speaker 1: room and tell him what I was just told. And
Speaker 1: when I did, my sister Gina let out an unbelievable
Speaker 1: cry roll on our knees. But then we got up
Speaker 1: off our knees and we went to my sister in
Speaker 1: law's house and did what we were supposed to do.
Speaker 1: Stop being there for the people that we love to
Speaker 1: give the sounds you're here in the background because I'm
Speaker 1: on my walk right now. Um. They never forget walk,
Speaker 1: So you're hearing the sounds of New Jersey. I'm walking
Speaker 1: towards uh um Jersey City. H and I'll be there
Speaker 1: sometime later today. But so that what happened on nine eleven,
Speaker 1: and then when we found out what Stephen did and
Speaker 1: that he ran through the tunnel, that we knew as
Speaker 1: a family that we needed to start and do something
Speaker 1: to recognize his heroic act. This when we started the
Speaker 1: Tunnel to taoas foundation quick commercial break and then more
Speaker 1: about Tunnel to Towers on the other side. You had
Speaker 1: mentioned right now you're on a seven mile walk from
Speaker 1: the Pentagon to ground zero, six states and over six weeks.
Speaker 1: They never forget walk. I imagine it's been both emotionally
Speaker 1: and physically exhausting. As you remember your brother Stephen, a
Speaker 1: hero who ran into the towers to try to save lives.
Speaker 1: What has this walk been like for you? What what
Speaker 1: does it meant to you? Well? I thought it was
Speaker 1: going to be a very emotional and spiritual walk, and
Speaker 1: it's been more than I ever thought it would be.
Speaker 1: I just have the the Fire Department Newer to New
Speaker 1: Jersey film. I'm on an interview guys. All right, Tom
Speaker 1: would agree right with you in a minute. All right,
Speaker 1: um to shake of my hand. We get this all over.
Speaker 1: So it's part answering your question. I have everyday citizens.
Speaker 1: I have police department's, fire departments, you name it that
Speaker 1: everywhere we go, and I go uh throughout this journey.
Speaker 1: And I started at the Pentagon on August first. I
Speaker 1: made it up to Shanksville, Pennsylvania on August one, and
Speaker 1: now I'll be ground Zero for the anniversary and I'll
Speaker 1: be you know, retracing Steven's final roads footsteps that morning
Speaker 1: early that morning. But it's been glorious and you know
Speaker 1: what people yelling at a card, never forget. I love America.
Speaker 1: The American flags that are going all over the place.
Speaker 1: I'm just in eastern Pennsylvania. Three hundreds high school kids
Speaker 1: with their marching bands were just like it grove me
Speaker 1: to my name's literally watching all these young kids. And
Speaker 1: that's what I wanted to do. I wanted to get
Speaker 1: the message to younger families, to younger kids. You know
Speaker 1: what happened twenty years ago, what happened to America, That
Speaker 1: Islamic terrorists try to kill as many Americans as possible,
Speaker 1: and they did kill two thousand, nine hundred seventy seven
Speaker 1: and uh, I cannot be forgotten. And so so the
Speaker 1: journey has been magnificent, and the mission has been one
Speaker 1: to make sure that we shine a big light on
Speaker 1: what happened, and it has been successful. And you talk
Speaker 1: about the young people that come up to you, you know,
Speaker 1: those high school students, what do you tell them about
Speaker 1: why it's important to never forget? Well, first of all,
Speaker 1: I tell them not just stories. My brother, there's so
Speaker 1: many heroes that they you know Stephens symbolic of the
Speaker 1: heroism of nine eleven. I mean, there were so many
Speaker 1: acts of garbage. It's it's incredible and uh and I
Speaker 1: and I tell them, I said, look, people just went
Speaker 1: to work that day and they didn't come home and
Speaker 1: their families, uh, didn't have their loved one anymore because
Speaker 1: people try to kill kill us and they did, and
Speaker 1: we got to make sure that that doesn't happen again.
Speaker 1: And that's why we have the military, that we have
Speaker 1: an age appropriate you know. I mean, if they're ten
Speaker 1: years old, I'm not going to tell them that's all
Speaker 1: that stuff. But if they're in high school, especially if
Speaker 1: the studios and seniors, I'm gonna be brutally honest. And
Speaker 1: I said, we can't let this happen again. And that's
Speaker 1: why we went to walk and over seven thousand, seven
Speaker 1: thousand men and women have given their life for our country.
Speaker 1: I said, does anybody here know that and believe it
Speaker 1: or not? Some do raise their hand and they say yes,
Speaker 1: And I said, well everybody here should should know. When
Speaker 1: I was in Morristown, Uh, Morristown, New Jersey, uh, two
Speaker 1: days ago and we had a big parade. Thousands, thousands
Speaker 1: of people were there. It was beautiful. I asked how
Speaker 1: many people have been to Shanks Hill and not all.
Speaker 1: You'd be surprised on little hands weren't up that we're
Speaker 1: in Shankful, Pennsylvania. And I said, you gotta go there,
Speaker 1: you gotta go there. And let me tell you when
Speaker 1: I was there on August one, and I was with
Speaker 1: a group of New York City firefighters and we went
Speaker 1: to the actual location where that plane was taken down
Speaker 1: by the great heroes of Light ninety three, all forty
Speaker 1: of them that took that plane down the first battle
Speaker 1: in the War on terrorism. And we won because they
Speaker 1: took that plane back and they saved lives on on
Speaker 1: the ground, and they have a boulder right there. And
Speaker 1: I knelt down to say a prayer, and every firefighter
Speaker 1: knelt down with me, and we put our hands on
Speaker 1: that boulder and we said the Lord's Prayer. I will
Speaker 1: tell you the emotions were gushing out of all of
Speaker 1: us because we were thinking about those forty great Americans.
Speaker 1: We were thinking about my brother, we were thinking about
Speaker 1: their firefighter friends, we were thinking about all the two
Speaker 1: thousand and seventy seven families, and how about we were
Speaker 1: thinking of the seven thousand families that die for our
Speaker 1: country we ever since. So if you were coming overcome
Speaker 1: with emotion being at that site and that live and
Speaker 1: and it was just so emotional emotional. It's today, I'll
Speaker 1: never forget the rest of my life. So everyone should
Speaker 1: go to Shanksville. It will help tell the story of
Speaker 1: what happened on nine eleven. Every One should go to
Speaker 1: the Pentagon and everyone should go to Ground zero, into
Speaker 1: that beautiful museum that they that they did down at
Speaker 1: the ground zero, and and teach your kids. Tell teach
Speaker 1: your kids the truth what happened. That's all you have
Speaker 1: to do. Just tell the truth. Don't sugarcoat it. Just
Speaker 1: tell the truth because we want to make sure it
Speaker 1: doesn't happen again. Well, and we've talked about your your
Speaker 1: brother Stephen, which is why you started tunnel two towers.
Speaker 1: He was zero. He was one of those three hundred
Speaker 1: and forty three New York City firefighters who died saving
Speaker 1: lives in the aftermath at nine eleven. He was a husband,
Speaker 1: a brother, a father. What was Stephen like as a
Speaker 1: brother or what was he like? It was crazy, that truth.
Speaker 1: He was a good crazy. Uh he was a dynamic
Speaker 1: human being. Um, I'll give you one real quick story. Uh.
Speaker 1: So he went to a meat loaf concert. And uh,
Speaker 1: he loved meet Love. He loved the thorough good you know,
Speaker 1: bad to the bows. He used to make play that
Speaker 1: song for my son all the time and um so,
Speaker 1: but during this concert he he you know, he just
Speaker 1: loves it. Is so emotional. He jumps on stage. Now
Speaker 1: everybody else would have been arrested, and he caught it away.
Speaker 1: He got right to the microphone with meat Loaf and
Speaker 1: sang a song with him, and and then when he
Speaker 1: was finished, he just ran and jumped off the stage
Speaker 1: with the people's arms. He was he was just full
Speaker 1: of that type of love and enthusiasm for everything. But
Speaker 1: he loved being in New York City. Firefighter, he knew,
Speaker 1: he loved a family. He loved the brotherhood. Look, my brother,
Speaker 1: my parents were gone by the time he was ten
Speaker 1: years old. My died died when he was eight and
Speaker 1: a half, and a year and half later my mom died.
Speaker 1: He was blessed that he had older siblings. We raised
Speaker 1: him by me. Really, my brother Russ who bla blas
Speaker 1: who sold passed away about a year ago. He lived
Speaker 1: in rock Call Center. But he knew Stephen knew the
Speaker 1: importance of every single day you're not guaranteed anything. So
Speaker 1: he lived life to it's fullest. And h he told
Speaker 1: us all how to live, and he told us all
Speaker 1: how to die. You give your life up to somebody
Speaker 1: else who does that, and he did. We just wanted
Speaker 1: to honor, uh, you know what he did. So he
Speaker 1: was an outrageous human being. To to answer your question,
Speaker 1: and Tunnelton Towers has just helped so many people. As
Speaker 1: I mentioned previously, you are truly living a purpose driven
Speaker 1: life with your mission and what you've accomplished with Tunnel
Speaker 1: to Towers. You know, why did you started and when
Speaker 1: did you started? We started it right away in December
Speaker 1: two thousand and one. We we knew we had to
Speaker 1: do something just to u just on a h. Stephen
Speaker 1: and what he did, we didn't know, Lisa. We did
Speaker 1: not know all the work that we were going to
Speaker 1: be doing. We did not know it. The first several years,
Speaker 1: we helped children that that of the first respondents that
Speaker 1: died in the line of duty by giving them like
Speaker 1: stipends for education or you know along those lines. And
Speaker 1: it wasn't a lot of money, but it was good.
Speaker 1: We were very proud of what we're doing. Of course,
Speaker 1: our first mission was to make sure we never forget,
Speaker 1: and we did that by having the tunnels of Towers
Speaker 1: run always the last Sunday in September. We'll have forty
Speaker 1: thousand people there this year running through that tunnel September UM.
Speaker 1: So you know, that was our mission until two thousand
Speaker 1: and eleven, first ever quadruple empathy to ever survive any war.
Speaker 1: Sergeant Brenda Baracco was from my hometown, Stephen's hometown where
Speaker 1: he was born, to Staten Island, and we went down.
Speaker 1: We visited Brendan at Walter Reid and I asked him
Speaker 1: if total of towns to build him home and would
Speaker 1: go to Momorgage Free home. And it changed everything because
Speaker 1: there were so many of these guys that were surviving
Speaker 1: on the battlefield that we never survived another wars. And
Speaker 1: they had a nonbelievable need what they needed in these
Speaker 1: especially adapted smart homes, so we built over a hundred
Speaker 1: of them. And then when detectives Low and Ramos were
Speaker 1: assassinated in New York uh two thousands of December, just
Speaker 1: because they were cops, that's it came. Somebody crazy person
Speaker 1: came up from Maryland and just shot him in the
Speaker 1: back of the head. Sitting in the squad cart just
Speaker 1: because they were cops. We heard that they were worried
Speaker 1: about their mortgages, and we paid off their mortgage and
Speaker 1: we renovated their homes and we saw the difference that made.
Speaker 1: So now you know, by the end of this year, Lisa,
Speaker 1: four hundred and fifty mortgage free homes. We will have
Speaker 1: delivered two hundred this year alone. And but there's a
Speaker 1: lot more work that we we have to do. And
Speaker 1: this is our promise. Listen, and and we need America
Speaker 1: to join us on this mission that if somebody goes
Speaker 1: to serve their country, well they community and give their
Speaker 1: kids a kiss goodbye and they don't come home. Total
Speaker 1: the Towers are going to take care of the families
Speaker 1: left behind. We're gonna gift them, deliver them a mortgage
Speaker 1: free home. You could only do it if people join
Speaker 1: us and go to T two T dot org and
Speaker 1: donate as a little as eleven dollars a month. And
Speaker 1: I don't think that's too much to ask. Every American
Speaker 1: you know turns around and says, oh, the government should
Speaker 1: do this, Oh this, they should do that. Who's gonna
Speaker 1: take care of that family? And they feel bad about it. Well,
Speaker 1: you know what, for lous eleven dollars a month, you
Speaker 1: could be part of this great mission that we're doing
Speaker 1: and give these houses to these great families that have
Speaker 1: paid the ultimate sacrifice for all freedom and all security. Well,
Speaker 1: and I actually I saw one of your commercials on
Speaker 1: Fox News and signed up. I I give more than
Speaker 1: eleven dollars, but I signed up myself. It's it's super easy.
Speaker 1: You can just do automatic payments each month. And you know,
Speaker 1: and I know the past year has been tough for
Speaker 1: a lot of families financially, so you know, you can
Speaker 1: sign up what you can to help out. But you know,
Speaker 1: I can promise you guys. Frank's just doing tremendous work
Speaker 1: and just helping you know, so many people. So it
Speaker 1: really is important, you know, Frank. But we're just reminded
Speaker 1: of the sacrifice that our service members pay for our country,
Speaker 1: latting down their lives to to keep this nation free.
Speaker 1: Who give so much. We just saw this in Afghanistan
Speaker 1: with the suicide attack. Thirteen young U S service members
Speaker 1: lives gone way too young, families without loved ones. What
Speaker 1: have you learned about sacrifice in meeting so many of
Speaker 1: these gold Star families and meeting so many of these
Speaker 1: families who have lost first responders, both police, firefighters. What
Speaker 1: have you learned about sacrifice with all of this? This
Speaker 1: is what I know. I know that all these people
Speaker 1: that serve, whether it's serve our country or a police officers, quirefighters,
Speaker 1: they love it. They love what they're doing. It's in
Speaker 1: their blood, it's ingrained. These are special human beings. Not
Speaker 1: everybody can do it. It's plain and simple. Not everybody
Speaker 1: can do it. And when they die, they die doing
Speaker 1: what they love, you know, saving people or protecting people.
Speaker 1: Now that being said, when they die. And it should
Speaker 1: have happened in the Thirteen Great Americans, and we just
Speaker 1: lost the greatest country that ever existed, and we couldn't
Speaker 1: leave there in the proper way. Shame shame on whoever
Speaker 1: was in charge of that, and we know who it is.
Speaker 1: But I really don't want to get overly political, but
Speaker 1: my heart breaks for these families because it shouldn't have happened.
Speaker 1: And I do talk to gold Star widows all the time,
Speaker 1: and they are destroyed, that's the word destroyed on what
Speaker 1: happened a couple of weeks ago to these Thirteen Great
Speaker 1: Americans rest assured that the total of the Tawas Foundation
Speaker 1: will be there for any family that fits our criteria
Speaker 1: that leaves a young family behind. And we know there's
Speaker 1: one widow that is pregnant and that this husband who
Speaker 1: will never see their child and this child will never
Speaker 1: see their father, and that's that's uh, that's disturbing and
Speaker 1: to the unteen degree. So but Tontal the Tawas Foundation,
Speaker 1: that's what we're there, and that's our promise. We're going
Speaker 1: to take care of that family, take care of the
Speaker 1: family of the of the trooper in Connecticut that was
Speaker 1: just washed the way in the hurricane. We already already
Speaker 1: spoke to this family and tell them we're going to
Speaker 1: take care of the mortgage. We will take care of
Speaker 1: the family of the police officers that were shot in Kalamazoo. Um.
Speaker 1: We already spoke to that family and uh we let
Speaker 1: them know I'm going to take care of that family.
Speaker 1: And that's what we do all over America. In the
Speaker 1: time we need the Foundation, We're going to be there
Speaker 1: to make sure that we support these great families and
Speaker 1: let them know they're not alone. And we do more
Speaker 1: of than just pay off the mortgage. They've become part
Speaker 1: of the Tunnel Towers family, part of the Silver family,
Speaker 1: and they go to all the events that we do
Speaker 1: because it is part of the healing process. Let's take
Speaker 1: a quick commercial break and then back with Frank Stiller
Speaker 1: on the other side. You know, you said that when
Speaker 1: you start off Tunnel to Towers, you had no idea
Speaker 1: that it would turn into you know this, you'd be
Speaker 1: able to help so many families as you have. What
Speaker 1: do you what do you vision for the future for
Speaker 1: a Tunnel to Towers? What do you what do you
Speaker 1: hope to do and to accomplish even further? Then all,
Speaker 1: there's so many families that you've already helped, Well, there's
Speaker 1: so many more families. So with delivering two hundred mortgage
Speaker 1: free homes this year, if I had enough money, I
Speaker 1: would deliver five hundred this year. If I had enough money,
Speaker 1: I would deliver a thousand this year. And it's that simple.
Speaker 1: There are a lot of families that still are waiting
Speaker 1: for the kind of support that that we that we
Speaker 1: give so that will be endless. There will be two
Speaker 1: hundred police officers that die this year alone. Two how
Speaker 1: many Americans know that you know and just so think
Speaker 1: of that number, many of them fit that our criteria
Speaker 1: that leave a young family behind, so work for us
Speaker 1: and cut out. It's very simple. Our mission is to
Speaker 1: take care of all these families that are left behind,
Speaker 1: but it's also never to forget and stand by for
Speaker 1: other things that we will be doing over the next
Speaker 1: uh decades to come to make sure. The first fishion
Speaker 1: is to make sure we now forget what happened twenty
Speaker 1: years ago and never forget of the men and women
Speaker 1: that continue to die for our country. And Frank, I
Speaker 1: know you mentioned it be or, but where can people
Speaker 1: go to sign up and to learn more about what
Speaker 1: you guys do and to help out financially. So to
Speaker 1: the ch two che dot org, it's stands for the the
Speaker 1: tunnel to taois t the number two ch dot org.
Speaker 1: And that's why you know we we we count on
Speaker 1: The in Fight Department is a saying many hands makes
Speaker 1: light work. So if many people come together, we could
Speaker 1: take care of all these families. And I think for
Speaker 1: eleven dollars and months you should join us on our
Speaker 1: promise that that will always be there for these families
Speaker 1: that pay the ultimate sacrifice for freedom and once again
Speaker 1: for our security. And freak. It's such an honor to
Speaker 1: know you. You you really just do you live a
Speaker 1: purpose driven life not many people do. Every day you're
Speaker 1: dedicated to helping our heroes, helping to people who have
Speaker 1: given their lives, given a limb in sacrifice to this nation.
Speaker 1: Anything else you want to add beat before we go, sir, Well,
Speaker 1: it's just that I'm on this walk. I'll be finishing
Speaker 1: on September eleven. I'll be walking through this same steps
Speaker 1: that my brother ran through the tunnel on September eleven
Speaker 1: to twenty anniversary. I'll be with my wife, my kids,
Speaker 1: my brother, and my sisters. And uh, when I come
Speaker 1: through that tunnel, I will be just thinking of all
Speaker 1: the great Americans that we lost twenty years ago. And
Speaker 1: I asked people to say a prayft for my family,
Speaker 1: for all the families uh that that lost somebody uh
Speaker 1: twenty years ago, and of course once again I prayed
Speaker 1: for thirteen Americans we just lost in the seven thousand,
Speaker 1: uh that that we lost over the last twenty years
Speaker 1: to protect us here at home. Yes, sir, Frank, honor
Speaker 1: to know you. Thanks so much for joining the show.
