I was home when my niece called to tell me about it. At first I couldn't absorb it at all. Then I started watching TV and thinking that the whole world would be joining me in grief. Two towers came down, one right after the other, just like my brothers.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32199165.post-8199403331891889242008-09-12T22:01:00.000-04:002008-09-12T22:01:00.000-04:00I just got off the phone wishing my father a happy...I just got off the phone wishing my father a happy birthday before he went to work. We lived so close we could smell the smoke across the bay. My real estate agent's husband, Lou Minervino, died in the towers.<BR/><BR/><BR/>www.GreenerPastures--ACityGirlGoesCountry.blogspot.comGreener Pastures--A City Girl Goes Countryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05448845964131250749noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32199165.post-86445786854041091122008-09-11T21:12:00.000-04:002008-09-11T21:12:00.000-04:00Everyone has a story about that day and I love hea...Everyone has a story about that day and I love hearing each of them. My cousin works for an investment firm that used to be in the south tower on the 85th floor. Scott was at his desk on 9/11 and saw the first plane hit. He grabbed his briefcase and two other employees and dragged them in the elevator. Those express elevators can take up to 15 minutes but on that day, it opened on his floor! He got out, ran across the street and turned around just as the first tower fell. To this day, he won't go into tall buildings. He still lives in NYC and he and his wife just recently had their first child.Clementinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08745982305618408952noreply@blogger.com
