😭🎂 Happy Birthday, sweet Zoe Falkenberg… Today you would have turned 27. Instead, your life was taken at only two years old — a tiny, innocent soul on United Airlines Flight 175, stolen away on that devastating September morning in 2001. You were flying home with your mommy, daddy, and big sister Dana when terror changed everything. Your little life, full of giggles, first steps, and endless wonder, was cut short in the most heartbreaking way imaginable. Zoe… every year on your birthday, the world feels the ache of what was stolen from you and from your family. A whole lifetime of hugs, birthdays, dreams, and love that you never got to experience. It still breaks hearts across the nation. 💔 You are the youngest victim of the September 11 attacks, and your name has become one of the most painful symbols of the pure innocence lost that day. 🕯️ Today we light a candle for you, little angel. We remember you. We honor you. We carry your memory with us. To the brave souls we lost on 9/11 — you are never forgotten. To the families who still feel this pain every single day — we stand with you. To the first responders and everyone who ran toward danger — thank you for your courage. 🇺🇸 September 11, 2001 — We will never forget. Rest in peace, precious Zoe. You are loved. You are remembered. Always. 🖤🕊️
