Aggie Mama,
Amazingly small world. When I met Jack Grandcolas in Shanksville I also found out that we had some uncanny ties to his in-laws. My uncle, who lives in Plano, also knew Larry Catuzzi - Laura's Dad.
My cousin - who works in the municpal bond arena - knew Larry Catuzzi as well from going to conferences around the country.
And, at the time, I worked for RBC Dain Rauscher....and Larry Catuzzi worked for Rauscher(before being acquired)..in the same department as my boss at the time.
My uncle knew him...my cousin knew him...and my boss knew him. And none of us knew this about one another until 9/11. And his daughter ends up being on the same flight as my father's. Amazing!!
