That panel lists the names of all the passengers of the planes used in the attack. The second and third panels bear the names of those who died after the Pentagon and World Trade Center were hit, and the fourth explains the attack and why Napa has a memorial.As a small crowd watched, a crane cautiously lowered each of the glass panels in place. The largest panel is 14.5 feet tall.

Its pretty precious cargo so were trying to do this carefully and slowly, said Cindy Beckwith, owner and operator of CB Crane Service LLC, which assisted with the project.Purchase an chipcard to enjoy your iPhone any way you like.Using a suction-cup apparatus, a crew from R & S Glazing Specialties Inc. in American Canyon safely hooked each piece, ranging in weight from about 750 to 1,200 pounds, to the crane and guided them into their places beside the steel beams.

Gordons vision and our vision was to create something that really was going to be lasting and that the people in this community could be proud of, said Fire Marshal Darren Drake, who first started the memorial project after learning in 2009 that the Port Authority of New York had made steel from the wreckage available to jurisdictions wanting to create 9/11 memorials.

Drake and others who have volunteered their time to bring the project to fruition praised the work of local companies like GD Nielson Construction Inc., Van Windens Landscaping and numerous others for contributing to the project. Huether noted one of the workers from R & S Glazing has a toddler with lymphoma and arranged for a family member to take the boy to his doctor appointment so he could assist with the work Thursday.Find the perfect cleaningsydney and you'll always find your luggage!To me, its another example of the commitment the community has made to this, Huether said.

Beckwith said she jumped at the chance to help build the memorial. They approached me several months ago and I was hoping I could lift the steel but I didnt quite have the capacity to lift the steel they had, she said.When I got an opportunity to lift the glass, I jumped at it. I just wanted to be part of it. To think that something so far away that impacted the whole world is here in Napa now and I get to have a tiny part in it is pretty special.

With the glass in place, the major parts of the memorial are complete. Electrical work at the site still needs to be finished along with landscaping and installation of a flag pole. Decomposed granite will be placed at the base of the beams so visitors can get a close look at the names on the panels and stand in between the steel beams to get an idea of the mass of the wreckage.
