My Dad (Don Coombs) was in the service during the cold war and has always wanted to have my brother and I appreciate the military sacrifices made for the freedom in our country. I just turned 51 and finally have grasped more than ever what he meant.
It is My Honor, My Duty and My Passion to dedicate my life and my business to honor the courageous first responders who risk and sacrifice their lives for their fellow man.
Like every other part of the city, New York's dance community was profoundly affected by the tragic events of September 11. In the one year since the terrorist attack on the World Trade Center, there has been time for reflection and healing.

My name is Racquel Cruz, Founder of the site Artist’s Square: www.artists-square.com . I moved 2 weeks to New York before this tragedy and shared the mourning of this great big city!!
The impact of the 9/11 tragedy inspired me to create a series of ongoing works about this terrible event in history. I find the memory of it remains fresh and I have continued to add to this series.
