Sept. 11 Memorial Held On Bascom Hill

MADISON, Wis. — As Sept. 11 memorials occur all over the world, in Madison, the sentiment is no different.

It’s a history lesson outside the classroom for Alex and Ian Campbell, on Bascom Hill’s memorial for the victims of 9/11.

“They were just coming home from school today,” said Robert Kauffman, the boys’ grandfather, “And we thought, let’s have a little lesson on humanity, humility, and humbleness about this tragic event that happened.”

The boys are too young to remember what grandpa Kauffman remembers so vividly.
