My cousins daughters fiancee was in one of the Towers.

She was engaged and was to go shopping today for a bridal gown.

They have not heard from him. He worked for Bloomberg.

I pray they get those responsible. All of them. Bring them to justice, even if it means bombing them where they stand.

My condolences to you. My cousin worked on the 84th floor of the World Trade Center tower # 2. We understand he has not been heard from...and we don't expect he will be. V's wife.

My prayers to your family.

I had a cousin who worked on the 100th floor of one of the towers - until Monday, when she was laid off. On a lighter note, we have requested that she start buying lottery tickets.

Paraphrasing a Bible verse I am too lazy to look up right now, "I will turn your sadness into joy."

I pray for the victims, and their families as tragic stories such as this are told. There are sure to be many more affecting FReepers across the country.

When I pray for all those directly effected by this act, I will have you two in my mind.

May God bless your families.

I just finished holding and crying with a friend whose husband and brother in law (his brother) worked on the 105th floor of the north building. The husband and his brother are "unaccounted for." He worked for Chase and it was his first day back at work after a vacation.

What do you say to this person?

I talked and cried with her for a while, then with her mother. I asked her what her husband had always told her, which was to be strong, not to worry, and to always do the right thing. Those are his words now and forever, I assured her. He also told her that they have been lovers throughout all eternity, reincarnated over and over, always to find each other. I asked her to take comfort, that they would certainly meet again.

An eight year old son of another friend explained to me what happened yesterday: That God had a shortage of angels in heaven, so he called on all the wonderful people in the planes and on the ground to join Him. These men and women, brothers and sisters, are new angels are with us right now, to watch over and help all of us for all of our lives.

And I hope that several of those on the planes went to hell.

My eighteen year old son has a friend who started as an intern in the WTC on Monday. Her parents in LA haven't heard from her. Bomb them all back to hell.

I am choked up over that message, thank you.

Saving bandwidth, I was just on Brian Wilson's show on KSFO, and he sent his best regards to all the Freepers - best place for updates, and cogent comments as well. The place to go for the most accurate information.

Be well.

A member of a co-worker's family overslept by an hour, so never made it to work on time.

Amazing. I think every person associated with this will have a personal story to tell.

Our hopes and best wishes for you and yours. And our prayers. It's time to bomb the terrorists, and their state sponsors, back into the stone ages, and may God have mercy on their souls, because we won't. Toward FREEDOM

I know what you mean. I worked right on Fulton Street until last April. Makes you think.

My daughter's boyfriend attended a meeting at Number One WTC on MOnday morning at nine a.m. He missed this by twenty four hours. His company has two locations, and he normally works uptown. He is heartbroken tonight.
