UNDATED - People all over the country are expected to pause Monday morning on the fifth anniversary of the 9/11 attacks - and there are at least three observances planned in our area.

Forty-five minutes later, at Gainesville State College, a program will be held in the student center.
And, at West Hall Middle School a 30-minute program is planned starting at 8:50.
A Gainesville native, Edna Stephens, who worked at the Pentagon was among those killed that day.
AccessNorthGa.com is planning a weeklong series of special reports on how northeast Georgians reacted to the attacks.
A number of people went to New York to lend a hand through church groups and other organizations; a delegation from the Gainesville City Council and Hall County Commission visited the city; and, a retired Delta pilot living in Gainesville reflected on what it must have been like for the pilots and crew of the doomed aircraft.
