Lived in NY on 9.11.01?: No
Knew someone who perished?: No

My wife works as RN at a hospital in Seattle, WA. I was working for Alaska Airlines at the time. I was asleep with twin boys at home. I heard my telephone ring just as the second tower was hit. It was my wife telling me another plane had hit the towers. She also mentioned she was hopping it was not an Alaska Airlines plane involved. I reminded her Alaska Airlines didn’t have service to New York City. And most likely this was not an accident but a terrorist attack of some sort. I knew right then we were in a serious situation and most likely at war with an enemy that would not stop until total destruction was done. I kept my boys home from school, I wanted to make sure if anything else blew up that we were all together. God bless our land we call America. God bless those who perished on 9/11.
