I always come back to the videos about Asia and the other victims from her school. It hits home because my 6th grade class went to DC in 97 and I won a writing contest to lay the wreath at The Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. When I see Asia, I see myself and the other little Blck girls who were my roomies during our trip. Remembering how different airports were and how our parents were able to see us to the gate and I have pics my parents took of us taking off on our cross country trip. It was our first trip without our parents and to have them all the way in California while in DC, Virginia, NYC. It was exciting and I know how Asia and the other kids felt, only for it to become a nightmare. I always keep Asia in my heart though I didn't know her and her loss is still felt by many over 20 years later.❤❤❤
I was just going to say the same.. the amount of evil and hate in this world is unfathomable. This world is not for me. Poor Asia and the other little kids who were the victims of this heinous attack did not get to grow up and realise their dreams!!
I'm so sorry for the three eleven-year-olds to be taken away too soon from their parents and siblings, never getting the chance to the start of their trip. I'm sure they were comforted and embraced by their beloved teachers to the very end. Forever 11 on 9/11.
Every year leading up to 9/11 memorial day I always remember Asia's story in particular you could tell looking at her she was someone special and destined for greatness 😢
It's inspiring to see people dealing with such a tragedy in a positive and meaningful way. My heart goes out to her parents...they seem like really lovely people. Asia was only three years older than me.
I was also the same age she was when it all happened. It’s sad the she Bernard, and Rodney never had the chance to live like I did. She and everyone will always have a spirit that will live on.
❤❤❤ My continued condolences extend to you, the Cottom family. I can't begin to imagine. But it warms my heart to see how you've chosen to remember Asia. May the Creator continue to comfort and strengthen you today on 9/11 and always. ❤🙏🏽❤️ RIP, ASIA! 😇 Love and Hugs from Georgia, Cielle 🤗🤗🤗
There is a place called heaven. When a person who dies who was especially close to someone that person goes to Heaven. While its peaceful up in the sky in Heaven and people maybe happy and content. There one small thing. They are not with their special person who loved them on Earth and They each miss someone very special to them who had be left behind. For Asia her special person who she had to leave behind could be her parents Clifton and Michelle or her older brother Isiah or maybe some of her classmate and her friends at her school. Then a day will come in Heaven when Asia will stop and look into the distance. Her eye will be full of intent. Her eager body will quiver and they she will run to her parents or brother or friends. When they meet they will cling in joyful reunion never to be parted again. The happy kisses will rain upon each other faces. Her parents will look into their eyes of their child or her brother will look in to the eyes of his sister or her friend will look into her eyes. So long gone from their life but never absent from each others hearts That point on Asia will be in Heaven with family and friends. together forever.

So sad that those babies never got to live and go on their trip. I know she was excited about it. I hate this world so much.
