Deora Bodley

Deora Bodley (April 8, 1981 - September 11, 2001) was an American student. She grew up in San Diego, California, where she graduated from La Jolla Country Day High School. As a junior at Santa Clara University, she pursued a double major in French and psychology. She volunteered for AIDS education, Special Olympics and America Reads, where she helped children to read.

Bodley died at the age of 20 in the crash of United Airlines Flight 93 in the September 11, 2001 Attacks in USA.

She is survived by her father, Derrill Bodley, her mother, Deborah Borza, her sister Murial (10), her step-mother Nancy Mangum-Bodley and her step-sister, Eva Rupp.

Deora left behind a diary with a poem she wrote in 1992 at age 11:

"People ask who, what, where, when, why, how. I ask Peace".

In her memory, her father co-founded "September 11 Families for Peaceful Tomorrows" and worked to rebuild schools in Afghanistan until his death in 2005 September 11 Families for Peaceful Tomorrows.

	I am currently researching for an essay on responses of families to serious crime, when i came across Deora's story, i nearly shed tears. Seeing how such a vivacious young woman could be denied the right to live, from my research i can tell that she could have become a great woman, more so then what she was. I feel for all those that knew and loved her, i hope that you can recover, and represent a great person. I will ensure that i pray for you and her soul. Keyan Salarkia, 15, London

Jose Ricardo Flores-Mejia

It's been 20 years since your passing... However, I never forgotten the day you told me I am married, I am going to have a baby, and day your son was born... You touched some many lives in different ways in your brief time on this earth in ways others can't imagine... Some people can be given a life time on this earth and accomplish nothing, and there are some people who are given a short time and accomplish so much... You Mr. Flores-Mejia aka Ricky was that person and soldier who accomplish so much in your shoft tme... As I see the days pass by, and the war seems to be a distant memory, your memory is still alive in my life, and still on this and like other days with my grandchildren I sit back like we did many times and listen to those West Coast oldies... "Never Forgotten"

Frank E. Adamski III

Laurie Cobb

She was my 3rd and 5th grade teacher. Today I'm 32 and still think about her. She was the best teacher ever. From her hair children stories to her bubbly happiness and kindness she spread. I'll never forget her. She was the teacher who had lunch with the kids in her classroom so everyone had someone to be with. She made my school experience amazing. I will never forget her.. I love you Mrs. Cobb. Sincerely, Forever in my thoughts, Alyssa (Viau) Capone

Larry E Polley Jr

SPC Polley died almost two decades ago so I don't know if this message will be seen. In honor of Memorial Day, my agency hands out cards with names of those who have fallen. This year, 2023, I received the card for SPC Polley and was inspired to look up more on him. I am thankful for his service and sacrifice. My condolences to his family. He is not forgotten.

Paul C. Holter III

Miss you brother

Alex D Gonzalez

Love you and miss you always. Since you been gone it has been hard for everyone. I know you loved what you did, and I want to thank you for our freedom. If I can have you back home and safe living your life man everything would be different. No matter how much money they would offer me I would rather have you alive and home. Money comes and go so it's not worth losing you.

Christopher D Young

hello my name is Jesus Vega I would like to give my condolences to Christopher's family and friends, I served with him in Iraq and slept in the same quarters. I have many fond memories of him. I have never forgotten his sacrifice. I would like to share that the greatest memory I had of Chris is that he would speak highly of his mom and how much she meant to him. Chris was a strong minded person and looked out for other. He was kind and friendly the he made friends with everyone. Chris was truly a great man! I sincerely apologize for not sharing sooner. but would like to express that Chris's memory will never be forgotten! though he is not with us he will always be in spirit! If this message gets to Christopher's mother I she could know she raised a great man and for that I thank you.

James David Parker

I knew James David Parker as "Dave" when he lived in Solon Ohio. We met when I moved into town from out of state. He and his group of friends were a year or two older than me. Dave was a bright beacon of hope and joy to me. I was an unsure young man in a strange place. Dave introduced me to many people and ensured his friends always saved me a seat in the lunchroom. I have fond memories of him and his friends during that time. I doubt so many people would have been as wonderful toward me without Dave's incredible kindness. I've never forgotten his kindness. I hope to be able to pay it forward someday.
