Rochester, NH - On Tuesday, September 6, 2011 Holy Rosary Credit Union (HRCU) Senior Management, staff and volunteers gathered around a newly planted gum tree in front of their corporate office located at 133 Brock Street to remember those who lost their lives on 9/11/2001.

In July 2011, 40 sweet gum trees were offered as gifts of remembrance from New York City’s National September 11 Memorial & Museum and were planted by the families of Flight 93. The 40 trees now stand to commemorate the lives of the 33 passengers and 7 crew members that were killed on September 11, 2001 while resisting a terrorist attack on board United Flight 93. The gum tree planted by HRCU was chosen specifically as a gift of remembrance for staff, volunteers, members and the communities HRCU serves.

Staff wore commemorative 9/11 pins that reflected the sentiment “We Remember…9.11” Brian Hughes, President & CEO of HRCU, said, “On this 10th Anniversary, every American wants to do something to remember the lives that were lost in this tragic incident,” Hughes continued, “the planting of this tree and plaque placed out front at HRCU will serve as a reminder of the heroes of that day”.
