Remembering September 11, 2001
The call came in and they responded
As they had done before
To a scene none ever imagined
They turned up by the score
They donned their gear and under masks
A steely resolve they bore
To save as many as they could
And ebb the tide of horror
A wave of life flowed from the mouth
Of concrete buildings high
But while the masses came rushing down
They climbed toward the sky
To save a life was all they hoped
Accepting they might die
For they have learned throught out the years
To give and not ask why
None could have for seen the tragedy
That struck them on that day
As hundred rushed in for the call
The buildings both gave way
And in the crush of concrete
And fire and choking ash of gray
Brothers and sisters cling to life
And fight on to this day
For those that fight
And those that died
We fight on who remain
So sacrifices made that day
Have not been made in vain
So never forget the ones in blue
Who stand brave and tall
To keep your homes and county safe
And sometimes even they do fall
And when your daily worries strike
Remember they are small
Compared to the sacrifices
Of the firefighters
Who responded to the call
~GONE BUT NEVER FOR GOTTEN~

Accept me for who I am and not what you see. Take time to understand the peices of me. What you see is not what you’re going to get. The perception you hold of me, I will soon make you forget. Beneath the surface, you will find so much more. I have locked myself away within my soul’s core. I’m very selective of who I show all of my colors to. The only ones who have access to my realness are those… who walk in Truth. After being betrayed by so many who walk in the dark, I had to become the protector of my own heart. The Light and the darkness can not coincide. Very few will see who I really am inside. Accept me for who I am and not what you see. Take time to understand the peices of me.
You were born to be real, not to be perfect. You're here to be you, not to be what someone else wants you to be.

Biography[edit]
Everton Conger was born in Huron County, Ohio, in 1834.[1] He was the son of Rev. Enoch Conger, a Presbyterian minister. In 1856, he moved to Fremont, Ohio, where he established a dental practice.
Conger enlisted in the Union army during the Civil War, initially as a private in the three-months 8th Ohio Infantry. He returned to Fremont with the expiration of his term of enlistment and married Emma "Kate" Boren on October 16, 1861, with whom he had five children. He later became a captain in the 3rd West Virginia Cavalry and eventually rose to the rank of lieutenant colonel of the 1st District of Columbia Cavalry. He suffered three severe wounds during combat and was assigned to detached duty in Washington, D.C., joining General Lafayette Baker's intelligence service as a detective.

Following the assassination of President Lincoln on April 14, 1865, Conger was ordered to accompany a detachment of 25 Union soldiers from the 16th New York Cavalry Regiment, led by Lieutenant Edward P. Doherty. The soldiers pursued Booth through Southern Maryland and across the Potomac and Rappahannock rivers to Richard Garrett's farm, just south of Port Royal, Caroline County, Virginia. Booth and his accomplice, David E. Herold, had been led to the farm by William Storke "Willie" Jett, formerly a private in the 9th Virginia Cavalry, whom they had met before crossing the Rappahannock.[2]
Conger tracked down Jett and interrogated him, learning of Booth's location at the Garrett farm, and led the soldiers there. Arriving early in the morning of April 26, 1865, the soldiers found Booth and Herold hiding in a tobacco barn. Although Herold surrendered, Booth refused.[2]
Conger set fire to the barn and Sergeant Boston Corbett mortally wounded Booth by shooting him in the neck. Booth was dragged from the barn and died on the porch of the Garrett farmhouse.[2][3]

Conger removed Booth's personal effects, including a diary. Conger was given $15,000 as a reward for the successful operation. The city of Fremont gave him a pair of inscribed silver-handled pistols in recognition for his role in tracking down Booth.
Conger moved to Illinois, built a home, and practiced law in Carmi. Later he was appointed a United States District Court judge in the Montana Territory. He eventually moved to Hawaii to live with his daughter, dying there in 1918. He was buried in Montana.
