Duke TODAY article:
Durham, NC - A grove of trees commemorating the six Duke alumni who died during the 9/11 attacks in 2001 are back in place outside of Keohane Quad.
During construction of the K4 residence hall, the trees were removed and stored in a greenhouse to protect them. They were returned to the space on Thursday, along with a memorial plaque.
The trees were planted in honor of: Michael Morgan Taylor '81, Frederick C. Rimmele III, M.D. '94, A. Todd Rancke '81, Christopher Todd Pitman '93, Peter Ortale '87, and J. Robinson "Rob" Lenoir '84.
Duke Alumni officials place a wreath at the site of every 9/11 anniversary.
