Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: I had just arrived at work, when I sat down I heard one of my co-worker's on the phone with her sister. I detected a sense of panick in the tone of her voice. I ask what was wrong and she told me that 1 "World Trade Center" was hit by one of our planes they were calling it an accident.At that time I was working on 40th & Park on the 34th Floor. I ran to the window that faced the Twin Tower's and couldn't believe my eye's there was this huge hole, it was dark and there was smoke, very black smoke. I ran back to my desk and tryed to get intouch with my sister who worked closer to the "World Trade Center". The lines were down I couldn't reach her. I was able to reach my mother. She was glued to the T.V. she informed me that the second tower was also hit. I couldn't see the second tower from the window at my job. But I did witness when the tower fell. There was this white smoke exiting the sides of the building. That was all I could see from that view, was the white smoke. I finally was able to reach my sister. She was screaming telling me that the first tower fell. I noticed how upset she was so I helped calm her down and intructed that she walk to my job as soon as possible. I also had to reach my sister in-law who worked down on 33rd & park. I went to her job and picked her up. Not to change the subject but this is the second most devastating tragedy that I ever expirenced. In 1992 my brother was killed in "Desert Storm". My sympathies and prayers go out to all the victim's and families in this traget time. Life go's on it will get easier to deal with. You will never forget that special person that was so loved by you. Mother's, Brother's, Sister's, Father's, Husband's, Wives, Aunt's, Cousin's, Fiance, and Best Friend's. May you rest in peace forever. I didn't know you but you will always be in my thought's. That day I was lucky, my co-worker's husband took us home in his jeep. My God Bless America!!
