The Roslyn community and other areas of North Hempstead will mark the 15th anniversary of the Sept. 11 terror attacks  with a ceremony honoring those who were lost.

The service will be held by the Town of North Hempstead on Sunday at 8 a.m. at Mary Jane Davies Green across from Town Hall on Plandome Road in Manhasset.

“During this memorial service, we gather as a community to honor and recognize those who lost their lives 15 years ago, including the 56 individuals from our North Hempstead family,” North Hempstead Supervisor Judi Bosworth said.

Among the 56 North Hempstead residents who died in the attacks, eight were from  Roslyn.

North Hills Mayor Marvin Natiss said 15 years later, the event is still very significant in his mind. He attended the town’s memorial service in past years and he said it is a moving experience.

“It’s a time for everyone to remember and I think the town of North Hempstead does a very nice job,” Natiss said.

Since the attacks, North Shore communities have found ways to memorialize the lives lost on Sept. 11, 2001. The Village of East Hills has a park commemorating one of its residents who was a victim of the attacks.

“On 9/11 we lost the Langone brothers in the Roslyn area who were dedicated firemen and a police, and we also lost our resident Arlene Fried,” said Michael Koblenz, the mayor of East Hills. “As a consequence we dedicated Arlene Park in the heart of our community, located in Norgate, to the memory of the 2,996, including many heroes, who lost their lives. It is a beautiful park that hopefully will be a special place for everyone to remember all of these people who were true Americans and who I hope will never be forgotten.”

The East Hills village attorney, William Burton, reflected on the attacks in light of the  15th anniversary.

“We’ll never forget the terrible tragedy of those who lost their lives in the 9/11 attack,” he said. “We forever mourn their loss and remember it’s a very sad day, and we can only hope that a tragedy of that proportion against our country does not reoccur in the future.”

Nassau County Executive Edward Mangano will  host a sunset memorial service at the county’s 9/11 Memorial in Eisenhower Park in East Meadow at 6:30 p.m. on Thursday, Sept. 8. The names of county residents who died in the attacks will be read by family members during the candlelight service.
