Thanks for writing this and sharing some hard memories.

I've been to Shanksville with my husband, btw, and it is a heartbreaking, moving experience.

If there are any words to comfort you, to make things a little better, I can't provide them. The best I can do is hope that the love you obviously carry in your heart for your father stays with you until the time you can once again wrap your arms around him in Heaven.

Thank you for posting this and my Prayers to you and your family.

The South Bay Wildlife Refuge here on Humboldt Bay was renamed after a passenger, Richard Guadagno. He was the director here at the time of his death.

Thank you for your account. I wasn't aware your father was on this flight. I've been telling my husband every time I see the trailer, that we have to watch this - even though I know I'm going to cry. But I can't imagine what it was like to relive it for your family & others. God Bless you.

Thank you for the post. I've become so disappointed with some of the unnecessary political statements injected into programs that are supposed to be factual. I look forward to watching it now.

I've always thought that the story of that flight was the most inspiring of all I heard from that day. Those men and women exhibited the best traits of America: bravery, faith, gumption, intelligence and a refusal to give up or give in.

Tubebender,

There is a lot of footage about Richard and of his family. He did not make a phone call but he sure as heck seemed like one of the folks who would've taken action.

I heard he would protect people as quickly as he protected the environment. I am glad he was on the flight.

Thanks for letting me know this - I'm thrilled the place was renamed after a hero who saved lives.

Take care,
Chris

I had no idea anyone connected so closely with Flight 93 was on FR. God bless you and your family.

My condolences and prayers are with you. Thank you for the review.

I too will never forget 9/11/01, because of the horror of that day and also because I flew home from a vacation in Las Vegas on 9/10/01.

It is still a powerful memory of how ignorant I really was on the 10th about the dangers in the world.
