The first anniversary of a massive Oct. 8 earthquake last year being remembered today with determination of reconstruction of the devastated region.
   
   Sirens wailed in somber reminder, then the bustling streets of this Kashmiri city fell silent, as hundreds of people marked the first anniversary of the South Asia earthquake that killed 80,000 people.

Similar memorials were held throughout the country to remember those killed in the 7.6 magnitude earthquake that struck at 8:52 a.m. a year ago, leaving more than 100,000 injured and 3.5 million homeless in northern Pakistan and disputed Kashmir, the region divided between India and Pakistan.
   
  Thanks to all those who helped those needy people at that time and after.
   
   
  God bless you all.
