Because its bigger than just the families involved. It's bigger than a single headstone or even the 2800 people who died. It's like like anyone will forget, but the tower(s)(depending on what they finally decide to go with) will be monuments themselves to those who have come before us and paid the ultimate price. It's about progress and moving on. It's about the american spirit and the reverance for our dead and trials we've gone through. Of course people die, but most of them will never mean anything to anyone nor would have done or been a part of something greater than they are.
