Yesterday marked 24 years since radical Islamic terrorists murdered nearly 3,000 innocent Americans on September 11th. Among those heroes was Glenn Thompson, a devoted husband who was working on the 104th floor of the North Tower when evil struck our homeland. His widow Kai Hernandez shared her heartbreaking story on Newsmax’s Wake Up America, reminding us all why we must never forget.
Glenn Thompson was living the American dream when terrorists tried to destroy it. He had just married his beloved Kai only months before that terrible Tuesday morning. Like millions of hardworking Americans, Glenn kissed his family goodbye and headed off to work, never knowing it would be his last day on earth.
When the first plane hit, Glenn called his wife to tell her the building was being evacuated. Those were the last words Kai would ever hear from her husband’s voice. His body was never recovered from the rubble, leaving Kai without even a grave to visit for closure.
The liberal media wants us to move on and forget, but patriots like Kai Hernandez refuse to let America’s memory fade. She lights a candle every September 11th and listens as every single victim’s name is read aloud. This is what real patriotism looks like, not the fake unity politicians preach.
After honoring the victims, Kai visits Glenn’s favorite beach and drinks a Budweiser longneck in his memory. She spends the day outdoors doing things Glenn would have loved, keeping his spirit alive through pure American traditions. This is how we honor our fallen heroes, not with empty political speeches.
Kai turned her grief into action by creating the Glenn Thompson Memorial 9/11 Sponsorship in 2007. The program helps fund search and rescue dogs, inspired by the brave canine teams who risked everything searching through the Twin Towers wreckage. She saw real heroes in action and wanted to give back to those who serve.
While some politicians use 9/11 for their own gain, Kai Hernandez represents the best of America. She channels her pain into helping others and never stops fighting for the memory of those we lost. Her husband Glenn would be proud of the woman who carries on his legacy.
We owe it to Glenn Thompson and all 2,977 victims to never forget what Islamic extremists did to our country. Their sacrifice reminds us that freedom isn’t free and that evil still threatens our way of life. As long as patriots like Kai Hernandez keep telling their stories, America will never forget September 11th.
