Let's begin by showing you where Gila Bend, Arizona, is located.
Just in case you don't have a basic knowledge of the Spanish language, Gila Bend is pronounced as Hee laa, Bend.
To see its location, please click onto another phenomenal Google Maps link.

I date back to December 1963 into February 1964 as to visits to, and passing through, Gila Bend. Patti and I date from March of 2018 having passed through Gila Bend en route from Phoenix to Yuma, Arizona, several times including this past April 2021.
We can't idly assume that each and everyone who happens upon our website knows what the 911 Attack was. The below link will fill you in.

It is amazing to us that the small town of Gila Bend has a 911 Memorial. It deeply touches our hearts when we visit the Memorial.
It brings tears to our eyes.
The 911 Memorial is located at 201 East Pima Street (AZ highway 85 and I-8 business route).
The timeline of that fateful day.
The below photos were taken walking around Gila Bend's piece of steel from the World Trade Center's Twin Towers.
Notice the attractive fountain in the background of the next two photos below.
Below you can see the fountain up close.
Now, for orientation purposes, we are going to show the below photos a second time.
What we want you to notice in the background of each photo are the flags and the cactus which we will show you in more detail below.
In the distant background of each photo, you can see the 911 Memorial piece of steel from the World Trade Center.
The Gila Bend 911 Memorial truly is a beautiful work of art and a wonderful place to visit.
In Memory of All Who Died in the 911 Attack.
