I was at work the day the towers where attacked. I will never forget the horror of watching the 2nd plane crash in to the south tower. Even now it seems surreal to me esp. since my nephew worked in the south tower, and I wasnt sure if he was there or not. To my relief I found out that he was not at work that day, as he had taken his wife to a Dr appt. Less than a week later he was killed in a motercycle crash when his bike hit debre when he had gone over to assist in the clean up at the site. So in a sence to me he was still killed by the terrorits. I still have a hard time seeing the new skyline in New York and the towers not being there. Will I ever forget NO and neither will anyone else. Sharon Briggman
