Well said.

Visited the Memorial a few months ago again. Was in New York when it happened, can't believe it was so long ago. Still vividly recall the whole day and very surreal week that followed.

I too visited the memorial in New Your back in 2016.

Found his name and said a prayer.

Found the whole experience of the memorial and museum heart breaking, yet also very uplifting on the sacrifices people made 17 years ago. I also include the wonderful work that people do re REMF which is also inspiring.

Still think back to that terrible day and the NSC thread on it when the awful news dawned on us when we realised that we'd lost one of our own.

For any new to NSC, Albion and the background, Robert used to post under the name 'Ricky Marlowe's Hairpiece'.

He was an active contributor to NSC and had posted on threads on the Sunday, less than 48 hours before the planes hit.

I still count it a genuine honour to have been able to play in the very first REMF game along with others on here.

At a time of increasing polarization of worldviews, the REMF still has the power to bring rival football fans together to improve the lives of others.

Long may it continue its good work and be a fitting tribute to Robert.

He was one of us.

RIP Robert and all those killed that day.

I'm sure Robert would be incredibly proud of all that the REMF has achieved in his name.

Me too. Be nice to all meet up again.

I too have seen Robert's name on the 9/11 memorial, very moving.

I didn't know Robert, however I did look him up on the memorial and indeed it was very moving.
Great to know about the great work done, and still being done in his name - typical Brighton!!

The New York Daily News always publishes the full list of the people who perished in the 9/11 attack. Seeing the list of nearly 3,000 names is always a sobering reminder of what happened.

RIP Robert

My wife and I visited the memorial 5 years ago. I managed to find Robert's name and although I never knew him it made me a little emotional at the time. The museum was still under construction while we were there but I do intend to go back and visit it.

Going to NYC in two weeks will be paying my respects

I did it with my Wife it was emotional also the tear drop memorial In the American EXPRESS OFFICE is also very moving.
Also the local fire station which lost most of its firemen was very sad. RIP to all of them.

The firefighters were truly brave men and women. The documentary shown in the years post 9/11, showing them climbing the staircases laden with gear, was so moving. Words weren't needed.
