An Ohio woman shared a touching picture on Facebook of her daughter praying in front of a September 11th memorial Sunday, which was the 15th anniversary of the terror attacks.

Miranda Snyder Hagan said Avon Lake High School had put a flag in front of their school for each life lost on 9/11.

“I can’t express how emotional it is to drive by and see the reminder of the tragedy of 9/11,” Hagan said.

Hagan said her little girl, Bailey, wanted to take a moment to pray for those who lost their lives. That’s when she snapped a picture of her daughter in front of the tribute, praying on bended knee.

“This is why we stand for our anthem. This is why we respect our flag. To honor all those who have lost and dedicated their lives for us. We will not forget.”

Hagan’s post is gaining a lot of attention on Facebook
