There's part of the exhibition and the event on September 11 that is extremely important to Peoria, and that is Peoria's one son who was lost that day in the Twin Towers.

So, I'll let Megan go from there.

- Yeah, so in addition to educating visitors on the event itself, we have made some Peoria connections to those who were active here in our community at the time but also one family who experienced a grave loss that day.

Charles Chip Chan was working in Cantor Fitzgerald in the World Trade Center during the time of the attacks.

And he had just moved there not too long ago to start his role.

And we've been able to not only remember him but talk more about his life and who he was.

His family has been really supportive of us, not only of the exhibit, but in helping us talk about their late son.

And they've donated a collection of items to our museum, which will also be on display for the very first time.

One being, I think it's a over 12-foot quilt that takes up the last section of the exhibit.

That quilt was produced by members of our own community, students of Richwoods High School faculty who came together after hearing the news and wanted to create something to give to the family that was not able to have remains and have a proper burial.

And so we honor Chip in our exhibit, and we thank the family very much so for their efforts in helping us tell that story and make that connection to Peoria more personal.

- Yeah, that's important for people to hear.
