Coweta County

will join the rest of the nation in staging a remembrance of the tragedies

of Sept. 11 next Wednesday.

Ceremonies

will begin at 8 p.m. on the west side of the Coweta County Courthouse

in Newnan.

Clergy members

from throughout the county will speak and offer prayers, while choruses

from East Coweta, Northgate and Newnan high schools will sing patriotic

numbers.

County Commission

Chairman Jim McGuffey will also offer a reflection the tragic events of

the day. One of the highlights is expected to be a speech from Coweta

County Extension Service employee Carolyn Fjeran. Fjeran's cousin was

Todd Beamer, who rushed the cockpit of the plane that crashed in western

Pennsylvania.

Numerous churches

throughout the county are also holding special services Wednesday.
