YOU GOT TO SEE THIS - The 911 Rolling Memorial
Owner-operators John and Amy
Holmgren of Shafer, Minnesota, use their common carrier for long haul (overnight
multiple day trips) for food wholesalers/suppliers, and thought this would be a
good tribute to those who had lost their lives on September 11, 2001.
Their rig has every name of the people killed that day and the flight's they
were on, plus some other graphics. The concept originated with the Holmgrens,
and was entirely underwritten by them. John says he will be awhile paying the
loan off that he had to take out to have Applied Images in Fargo, North Dakota
do the work. But the Holmgrens felt this was "the least he
could do."
John reports that he got to meet country singer
Darryl Worley, who sang
the song "Have You Forgotten" and has been pulled over three times by the police
just to get their picture taken alongside this truck. Click the pictures for
