9/11 Flag to fly in front of W. Wyoming town hall

West Wyoming Borough Council has decided to fly a “9/11 National Remembrance Flag” below the American flag in front of the town hall. The flag, donated by borough resident Louis Bigiarelli, was created to honor those who lost their lives on Sept. 11, 2001. The “9/11 National Remembrance Flag” features four stars – each representing the sites where tragedy occurred that day
