## Caption

Johnathan Egan lost his father and aunt when the South Tower collapsed on 9/11. Inspired by a lyric from his father’s favorite Beatles song — “Take a sad song and make it better” — Egan has dedicated his life to service, remembrance, and ensuring the stories of those lost are never forgotten.

Today, as Co-CEO of the Queen Elizabeth II September 11th Garden in lower Manhattan, he continues to honor the memory of his loved ones by creating a place of reflection, resilience, and hope for future generations. #911Museum #NeverForget911 #NYC #history
