Finding words when there are none
September 2001

We at Hi-Tech Security Solutions extend our heartfelt sympathy for those who have lost loved ones, and pray for those who are still waiting to hear from missing friends and family.

This is also the appropriate space and time to give recognition to the efforts of those who continue to offer their time, skills, resources and energy to companies that have seen their people and premises wiped out.
