You lost your daughter in the towers?

I'm so, so sorry.

Be assured, many, many of us will never forget.

I am sorry. I didn't mean that she was lost in the towers. We were among the lucky ones. She was in the first tower that was hit. She escaped. We didn't know she was safe until 11:30 so we were desperate and when the towers went down we just knew we had lost her. One of the girls I go to Bible study with lost her husband. He died by staying to help others escape. She has small children.

NJ is a commuter state. There are buses that pick people up from PA and NJ and take them straight into Wall Street. That is how my daughter got in every morning. The night of 9/11 and several nights after, there were still cars in the parking lot that hadn't been picked up. We could imagine that they were left by some who were lost.

I do believe that some of these protesters are naive, but some of them have a real agenda.

I am glad your son missed the war. Our nephew is there right now. We had dinner on Labor Day right before 9/11. He had just gotten through paratrooper school at Ft. Benning. He is with the 82nd Airborne. Right after that was the twin tower tragedy and now he is there to fight the terrorists.
