I cry every time I see the one with the firefighter in Oklahoma city

In the summer of 2007 I was in Oklahoma City attending a conference and we visited the memorial one evening about 9 pm. It was a very somber and sobering experience seeing all of the memorial markers (lighted chairs for each person who perished) around the reflection pool. Couldn't help but bring a tear or two to your eyes.
