I was safe and hoping my friends, family, and neighbors were also. Unfortunately, that wasn't the case. Two years ago the only son of family very close to mine lost his life serving as a member of the FDNY. Since then, both a street and a local public school have been named after him. Two of his sisters have gotten married, one of whom is currently serving our nation in the Army. I think of him often. What a devastating tragedy. He was only 23 and a recently college graduate.
