            <text>My sister was Lisa Trerotola, Lisa worked on the 64th floor
of tower #1 with the Port Authority of NY &amp; NJ, the TB&amp;T dept. My lovely sister was a person that every one loved, 
when you met Lisa it seemed as if you new her for ever.
On that tragic and devastating day, lisa was amoung 15 other
co workers two of which survived coming down stair well B.
The last words my Dad had with Lisa was, Dad I have to go, I
have to go, and to this day my father has to live with those last words every day. It is now a year and a couple
of months and it feels like this is a bad dream and I will
wake up and it would be a horrable one. For me, my sister
was a jewel and other people in this world should be so lucky as I was to have Lisa in my life. The fond memories that I have no one could ever take from me. You took our hearts and broke them, but our love of each other and our soul will live on forever. The group that was responsible for September 11th, 2001 your judgement day will come, no one on this earth could ever tell me there was a reason for taking inosent lives that tragic day. Because no religon or god would ever allow this to happen in there name. My sisters tragic death was not going to let me become bitter with hatred and it is so easy to do, instead I must be strong for my family and teach my children not to hate as other do. I have enough sorrow every time I look into my parent eyes and my neice and nephews eyes and the rest of my familys, knowing lisa is gone. And how much I had to look forward to Michael and lisa and the twins and my family grow old together. I feel 
my sisters presents every day with me and that is what is keeping me going with my loving wife and children. For the people who had jelous feelings because of our close knit family. They may have killed us but we have one on you our love is stronger for each other more than ever. I  will love you always in my heart lee, your brother Paul.         T W M A.
