S4 Ep02: Memories of 9.11.01

 

September 11, 2001:

If you are above thirty years of age, the terrible events of that day are most likely etched in your memory and will be for years to come. 

Many people today are able to remember exactly where they were, what they were doing  and how they found out that the United States of America had been attacked by terrorists.

In this 20th anniversary tribute to the victims and survivors of the 9/11 attacks, we will be speaking with three individuals, Neil, Amy and Marty who will share how their lives were directly impacted by the events of that day.

Neil’s story - Neil was working at his office on the 35th floor of the North Tower of the WTC when the first plane struck his building. 

Amy’s story - Amy was a student at Bloomfield College in northern New Jersey when she received a misdirected call from a WTC survivor who was desperately trying to reach loved ones.

Marty’s story - Marty was a retired Wanaque, NJ police officer when he answered the call to assist NYPD (as a volunteer) in recovery efforts at and around the WTC.
