Monday, Dec. 2, marked the ninth anniversary of the 2015 San Bernardino terrorist attack, which took the lives of 14 people, including 13 county employees. Dozens of other county employees suffered serious physical and emotional injuries.
The county hosted a private memorial service on Monday for survivors and the families of the deceased at the Curtain of Courage Memorial at the County Government Center in San Bernardino. The county also conducted a virtual moment of remembrance on the county’s social media channels and lowered flags to half-staff.
County Assistant Executive Officer Diana Alexander led the memorial service and vowed the county would never forget Dec. 2, 2015, and those who were taken from us on that day.
