Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: I heard one of my co-workers say that a plane had just hit the World Trade Center. I knew my nephew worked there and ran over to his computer terminal to see what building was hit. It was my nephew's and it looked as though it was right below his office which faced the Empire State Building. I called his wife, 26 yrs old. She was hysterical and asked me to pray for him. I told her I would get off the phone in case he was trying to call. He called when the building was bombed years before. But there was no call. All the family was online trying to find out if he was alright. We phone every hospital in the tri-state area, hoping that they had a John Doe that might be him. He never came home. On August 9th, his wife received a visit from the local police. They told her to call the N.Y. Medical Examiner...they had a DNA match. We finally have him back. He leaves behind a wife who was 26 years old at the 9/11 attack and a 7 month old daughter. I feel for all the people who haven't received a call yet about a DNA match. It will never end for them...but then, it will never end for us either. Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
