As the 10th Anniversary
of that fateful day
approaches, we will
never forget
In Memory of Minnesota Native
Thomas E. Burnett, Jr., Martyr, Faith-filled Catholic,
Devoted Husband and Father, Citizen Soldier
Tom answered the call without reservation and led the violent, fateful and successful
charge by our citizen heroes on the cockpit of United Flight 93 on September 11,
2001, saving a targeted attack on the White House by Islamic Terrorists. Tom Burnett
freely opened his heart and united his will, being prepared by Our Eucharistic Lord
and the Blessed Mother, in inspired anticipation for what would be asked of him in
service to the Faith and the Nation he loved so much.
