So, what we have are a number of issue advocates who also lost family members in the attacks of 9/11. However, these folks have specific issues they are trying to support. Moreover they are not a representative sample of ALL 9/11 families.
I intend to research every single one of these people and make sure the press knows who they are.
"At 32, with a head of unruly, sun-tinged curls and a shy smile that can instantly grow wide as the surf, Breitweiser still appears very much the beach rat she was while growing up in the Shore town of Manasquan. Though her father, John L. Winterstella, got involved in local government when she was a toddler and has been the town's mayor since 1984, it would be a mistake to assume his daughter inherited his civic-mindedness; too many interrupted family events over the years had soured Kristen on politics and government. After graduating from Rutgers, she earned a B average and a law degree from Seton Hall Law School in 1996, with an eye toward doing criminal work. But she wound up getting sidetracked into family law, and just three days into her career at a firm specializing in divorce, she quit the profession, finding it corrosive to her psyche. She needed to find a new direction, and, fortunately, she could take her time finding it. The summer of her bar exam, she'd started dating Ron Breitweiser, a rising money manager from Rutherford, and five months later they eloped to a secluded Caribbean island. By the time Kristen quit her job, she and Ron had settled into a spacious house in a verdant corner of Monmouth County near Sandy Hook, where she tended a garden and indulged her sartorial preference for blue jeans and baggy sweaters. Her new mission in life arrived in the form of a strawberry blonde daughter, Caroline, now four years old. After that, being with Ron and Caroline, taking care of the house, and planning for holidays was all Kristen wanted in the way of worldly responsibilities.

Kristen's maiden name is 'Winterstella.' Her father is 'John Winterstella.' Here is his information:
"He went on to say that there is no dispute that Mr. Winterstella, a Democrat, has contributed enormously to the community over the last 20 years, but the council was divided, so that is why he chose to deny him the honorary title of Mayor Emeritus."
