Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: The greatest thing that man can do is to contribute. On that horrible day, my husband, Peewee, now a Hollywood stuntman, learned that fourteen of the ESU men that he trained with, were missing. Being in California, he felt so helpless, and paced like a caged cat, waiting to be given permission to go to NY to help in the rescue efforts, to contribute. As a few days passed, he was finally given the okay to come to ground zero. I knew as I packed his bags, that this would be the most difficult time of his life. He was a rescue professional, but more importantly he was a born and raised New Yorker, only coming to Los Angeles to persue his stunt carreer. His heart was there at ground zero. He called me from his cell, in the middle of it all to tell me those fourteen men, were lost, and that the devistation was not to be believed. My 6'3" , 230 lbs. husband wept like a child, as he tried to describe what had happened to them. Today, on the 1st anniversary of 9/11, my eight year old son, Vincent, announced that he wants to be in the Army, so that he can defend his country and CONTRIBUTE. This is my contribution to them, and all the "Sons" of our great nation. GOD BLESS AMERICA!
