God Bless America



When you see this picture, you'll now know it was taken by the webmaster in the 
entrance of Cedar Ridge Elementary School, Tulsa, OK - September, 2001! 

GOD BLESS AMERICA, Land that I love, Stand beside her and guide her,
through the night with the light from above.
From the mountains, to the prairies, to the ocean, white with foam
GOD BLESS AMERICA, My Home, Sweet Home!

This page is dedicated to the victims of the
tragic events of 9-11-2001 and their families

May God grant them peace and help us as we heal
the pain in our nation and punish the evil deeds of our enemies.

  May God give comfort to the airline families of American and United.


God Bless America!

UNION's CEDAR RIDGE ELEMENTARY IN TULSA
PROUDLY FLIES THE COLORS

OUR OWN FLAG - PROUDLY SHE WAVES


As the soot and dirt and ash rained down -
we became one color.

As we carried each other down the stairs of the burning building -
we became one class.

As we lit candles of waiting and hope - we became one generation.

As the firefighters and police officers fought their way into the inferno - we became one gender.

As we fell to our knees in prayer for strength - we became one faith.

As we whispered or shouted words of encouragement - we spoke one language.

As we gave our blood in lines a mile long - we became one body.

As we mourned together the great loss - we became one family.

As we cried tears of grief and loss - we became one soul.

As we retell with pride of the sacrifice of heroes - we become one people.

We are - one color, one class, one generation, one gender, one faith, 
one language, one body, one family, one soul, one people...

We are The Power of ONE.  We are United.  We are America!!!
