Those remains have been kept in an above-ground crypt for the last 10 years by the Somerset County coroner, Wallace Miller, awaiting a final resting place. They will be laid to rest in three steel coffins at the patch of earth — sodden now from endless rains — where the plane rammed into the ground.

The remains of the 40 passengers and crew members who perished aboard United Airlines Flight 93 on September 11, 2001, were handled with extreme care and respect. Following the crash in a field near Shanksville, Pennsylvania, investigators worked for weeks to recover and identify remains. Once the identification process was completed by the Somerset County Coroner's office, all identified remains were returned to the respective families for private burial or cremation according to their wishes. However, due to the high-impact nature of the crash, some remains could not be individually identified. In a private ceremony held on September 12, 2011—the day after the 10th anniversary—the unidentified remains were buried in three caskets within a "restricted access zone" on the sacred ground of the Flight 93 National Memorial. This specific area, located near the "Impact Site" and the "Hemlock Grove," is closed to the general public and is designated as a true cemetery for the heroes of the flight. Additionally, in 2018, the remaining wreckage of the aircraft was also returned to the site and buried in a separate, secure vault within the same restricted zone, ensuring that the final resting place of the flight remains undisturbed and hallowed.
