There were plenty of times when I was at my desk at 8:47 AM and never did we ever expect to have a plane come thru the windows . I still have a hard time thinking about the people , their families and everyone who went to work on 9/11/01 just like any other regular day in their life , not knowing how everything would change , in some cases forever , afterwards .

It bears the phone number he gave me and my record of his parting words : " I wish you the best . I hope we both make it November 4 , because we need to work together on the problems that remain .

Who never reached out like they were supposed to ?
