    Annual ceremony scheduled in Stonington for 9-11 victims

    Stonington ― A memorial will be held on Sunday, Sept. 11 at 8 a.m. at Stonington Point to remember victims of the 9-11 attacks including Josh Piver, who grew up here.

    There will be a moment of silence , a singing of “Let There be Peace on Earth“ and ”God Bless America.“ Participants will also be encouraged to share their comments. The event is open the public. The memorial is sponsored by the Rotary Club of The Stoningtons.

    Piver, a Stonington High School graduate and soccer player, was 23 when he was killed on Sept. 11, 2001, in the terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center in New York City, where he worked on the 105th floor for Cantor Fitzgerald.
