Robert Fangman

**Robert John Fangman** was a flight attendant. He enjoyed red wine, dancing, gourmet meals, pinball, as well as dyeing his close-cropped hair. Before taking a job with United Airlines in January, Mr. Fangman had worked for Verizon Wireless. "He found his calling when he joined the airline", according to his mother.

Ruth Fangman spoke to her son Robert for the final time on Saturday.
Robert, a United Airlines flight attendant, had telephoned his mother at her Claymont home from Texas, where he was visiting his oldest brother, Marty, and other relatives.

"Bobby said he might come home to visit on Sunday," Ruth Fangman said Thursday from her tidy brick row house off Philadelphia Pike. "But he stayed in Texas an extra day and never made it. Now I'll never see him again."

So instead of anticipating the next visit from her son, Ruth Fangman has spent the last two days learning of his death, exchanging teary embraces with her other six children, accepting condolences from friends, and making plans for a memorial celebration in Bobby's honor.

"He was my baby," Fangman said, fighting back the tears. "It hasn't really even sunk in yet."

Ruth Fangman, a widow who had four sons and three daughters, spent an hour early Thursday at her kitchen table reminiscing about her youngest child with daughter Terri, who rushed up from her Virginia home after hearing Bobby was on the doomed flight.

They spoke of his love of wine, gourmet food, big cities and international travel. They said he brightened many family gatherings with tales of his European journeys or by bursting into song, a cappella.

"He had a such a beautiful voice," said Terri, 43, who was in Texas last weekend with her brothers.

The women said Bobby, a Claymont High School graduate who had sold cellular telephones for about four years, had found his calling as a flight attendant.

He had met some attendants on a flight to Paris last year, became enamored with the lifestyle and decided to apply for a job with United. He was assigned to Boston in January.

Bobby's happiest days were the last eight months, as he hop-scotched around the country and the globe, often taking last-second assignments to Europe, they said.

"But now he's gone," Ruth said. "Words can't express how I feel. There's just a big hole in my heart."

He died at age 33 during the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks while on board United Airlines Flight 175.

He was survived by his sister Debbie, and his mother Ruth.

## Tributes

This page honoring Robert Fangman is a wonderful tribute to his memory. I worked with Rob while he was with Verizon Wireless. At the company holiday party prior to his leaving the company for his flight attendant school he was wildly honored. He was so full of life, a truly great human. Knowing how excited he was to become a flight attendant he surly died doing what he loved most. God bless Rob Fangman. Bill Jones

Maudlyn White

Staff Sgt. **Maudlyn A. White**, 38, St. Croix, Virgin Islands, was a member of the U.S. Army. She died in the Pentagon.

Maudlyn and I were class mates at Stayer University. She was majoring in Computer Science at the time. As a matter of fact, we were classmates in the last two classes she had to complete before receiving her Bachelor's degree. She would always say, "Jennifer, this is my last computer class and I will be out of here!" laced with that Carribbean accent I always loved to hear. I would laugh and she would bounce back to her seat to give the instructor some more of her great sense of humor before the break ended.

Maudlyn was a go-getter. She worked full-time, attended school full-time and was a single mom. I truly miss her and pray for her and her daughter.

Creation

Creation is the Quirk used by Momo Yaoyorozu.

## Usage

Creation allows the user to materialize different objects, such as weapons and tools, from any part of their body.

With the exception of living beings such as humans and animals, Momo can create pretty much whatever she wants, no matter how complex or advanced its structure may be.

She only requires to understand the atomic configuration of said object in order to reproduce it: she first imagines the necessary parts, followed by the materials, then the assembling process and, finally, the coating.

Momo's creations emerge from her body with a blue and pink glow and are otherwise no different from the regular objects they are based of, although she can customize the materials that form their composition, giving them whole new properties.

Momo doesn't necessarily have to completely dispense a creation from her body either, having the choice to materialize only half or more of its functional structure, while the rest remains within her person.

This is useful for situations where she has to quickly maneuver said creation or herself around, or if both her hands are currently occupied with some other task.

Momo has the ability to create objects bigger than her the surface area of her skin, allowing her, if she has enough lipids, to create objects far bigger than herself.

She can also create items outside of her body as long as part of the creation is touching her body.

Momo's body breaks down fat at a molecular level, which will then be re-used as material for her to shape into objects with her Quirk.

Because of this, a considerable ingestion of food is necessary for Creation to be effective.

## Weakness

Since Momo needs time to create and use items, with larger and more complex ones taking longer to make, this puts her at a disadvantage against repeated attacks that force her to go on the defensive and give her no time to think or act.

This is shown during the U.A. Sports Festival where Fumikage Tokoyami attacked her with Dark Shadow and soon defeated her by forcing her out of the ring.

This weakness was also exploited by Itsuka Kendo who attacked her with a flurry of enlarged punches during the Joint Training Battle.

The amount of objects that Momo can create depends both on the amount of lipids that she has in her body, as well as the size and complexity of the object she creates, spending more lipids the more difficult they are.

Momo can end up weakened if she is low in fat deposits and overusing her Quirk can result in her becoming underweight and frail.

In order to effectively create an object, Momo must have a deep understanding and knowledge of its atomic composition, which means she cannot create things she doesn't know how to create down to the atomic level.
Lynn Goodchild

**Lynn Goodchild** died on September 11, 2001. She was aboard United Airlines Flight 175 which crashed into the World Trade Center South Tower.

Thomas Reinig

**Thomas Barnes Reinig** was lost at the World Trade Center on September 11, 2001. Reinig, 48, was vice president of the eSpeed Software Solutions division of Cantor Fitzgerald and a resident of Bernardsville, New Jersey.

Tom is survived by his wife, Jeanne Fattori Reinig, and two sons, Christopher and Scott.

"Persistence, determination and love were personified in every aspect of my father's life. Starting a family in northern New Jersey, he constantly sacrificed himself for the benefit of those he loved. Always traveling wherever his work took him, his heartfelt dedication to everything in his life was obvious at all times to everyone who knew him. Working hard was always important to my father, yet never at the cost of spending time with his family. A model dad, he encouraged my mother, brother and me to aim high, by leading us with the example he set.

"Riding chair lifts with us on the ski slopes, swimming with us at the town pool, coaching our sports teams, cheering for us during competitions, getting frustrated over poor golf shots with us, competing alongside us in triathlons, and pushing us to excel in school -- never once did he leave our side.

"Fighting all the pressures of the business world to put work first and everything else second, my father never let his job get the best of him. Rather, it only brought out the best. The idea that working hard and playing even harder was a rule of thumb, he did whatever was required of him to ensure that he could do just that.

"We'll certainly miss all the great times, the steak dinners, the vacations, but most of all, you and your drive to make things perfect, just as they were. Smiling, a Reinig tradition, is what we'll continue doing. I'm sure anyone who ever met my father and our family knows that all he would want from us is for us to remain smiling. We can't cry because it's over, but we can smile because it happened. Thanks dad, for everything."

*-Scott Reinig, son*

"Tom and I worked together for a number of years at Lehman Brothers. Always very professional and enthusiastic, Tom was especially helpful to me when, as a second year associate, I was asked to start the derivatives and financing business at Lehman in Japan - at the time a small office of 20 people. Whenever he was asked to help out on a project he was responsive and responsible. I have lost contact with Tom since he left Lehman but remember his cheerful and enthusiastic demeanor fondly. As we were the same age, his untimely passing has personally affected me and has made me think hard of how I am living my life."

*-Gary Talarico, former colleague*

"Tom sat in the desk next to me in high school..He was very bright,hard working,understanding person....Tom was a true AMERICAN in every way..... My heart goes out to his family ..GOD BLESS YOU"

Stephen Long

**Stephen Vernon Long** was a major who died in the Pentagon attack, aged 39.

Steve was a student of mine in a public personnel management class being taught at Ft Belvoir for Troy State University. We would often chat after class. At the class session before September 11 I had distributed results of the midterm examination. They were dismal. After class Steve expressed his apologies for not having worked harder to meet his own expectations. He was a man of great energy, and undaunting Christian faith. He was an avid athelete, and loved the tests of stamina activities (mountain climbing, parachuting). He had recently undergone knee surgury, and doubtless this operation put him at a disadvantage on 911. One never knows. I had heard that he was not immediately killed, but was seen going back into the chaos to help others escape. True or not, this sounds just like him.

Steve was a classmate (and ROTC alum)of mine at Augusta College in Augusta, GA. He was a prior service enlisted Ranger, a veteran of the Grenada invasion. He was an outstanding man who put Christ and his family first. He loved his step-sons and his wife. He was a gifted athlete and a genuinely outstanding person. A great sense of humor and bedrock midwestern values characterized his personality. Although I hadn't seen him in 14 years, I still feel his loss. The US lost a patriot and a son. I lost an example of what it means to be a good man and an outstanding soldier.
Peter Siracuse

**Peter A. Siracuse**, 29, New York, N.Y., was a bond broker at Cantor Fitzgerald Securities.

We met as little boys and together became men. The tragic way you were taken from us I can't comprehend.All though you're gone and in another place your spirit and memory fills my vacant space.I wish I had the chance to say goodbye, but now you know my love for you will never die.
With All My Love,

Wolfie
Pete, you remember me, Tony Barone's friend, used to hang out with Kevin McHale. I just read Wolfie's letter and I remember Wolfie working out at Bethpage HS and I remember his brother at Sal's Pizza. Last I saw you I was probably drunk walking the streets of Bethpage; I most remember the day in front of Tony's house when you told us you were bench pressing "about 190", we were only in HS. May God bless and keep you, and may God bless your child.
With Love,

Walter Travers

**Walter "Wally" Travers** was an employee of Cantor Fitzgerald Securities.

He was killed in the September 11, 2001 terrorist attack on the World Trade Center.

## Tributes

I have been writing this over and over for one year. It was selfish but Wally was more than a friend. He was an honest, loyal, caring, father and husband. He made people that were around better because it was never about him. He lived his life from the heart and that is why everyone that knew him felt like Wally was their best friend. When we stood together I was dwarfed, not by his size although he was 6'4 *and 250 lbs but his heart and presence. I am a better person for knowing him but a selfish person for wanting more. I hope people remember him for how he lived not how he died. Wally knew that the picture was in the heart. Wally will always be in my heart.*

Erasure

Erasure is the Quirk that was formerly used by Shota Aizawa, until it Akatani Mikumo used his All for One Quirk to take it during Aizawa's dying moments so to keep the Hero an advantage.

## Usage

Erasure allows Shota to cancel out other Quirk powers and abilities simply by looking at the target.

When Erasure is activated, Shota is able to disable a person's "Quirk Factor" for as long as he concentrates on his target, rendering any Quirk affected unusable.

Shota only needs one part of the target's body to be within his sights for Erasure to take effect.

Since most people in the world rely on Quirks for combat purposes, this makes Shota an extremely bothersome opponent for anyone to deal with.

Shota's hair stands upwards and his eyes glow in a bright red color whenever Erasure is in use.

Its effects wear off if Shota shuts his eyes (which includes the act of blinking) or looks away from the person he's targeting.

## Weakness

Erasure has a limit of how long it can remain active, with repeated use of the Quirk shortening its maximum duration for every new activation.

Whenever Shota's Quirk gets deactivated, his hair falls down to its original position, which an observant enemy can take advantage of by predicting a potential opening for an attack.

Erasure does not affect appendages originating from Mutant-type Quirks, but it can impair their function as the Quirk Factor that incorporates all the mechanisms necessary for a Quirk to work properly will be temporarily nullified.

Physical strength or abilities not derived from Quirks are unaffected.

Erasure requires a continuous focus on a specific target for its effects to be maintained, meaning Shota can't afford to get distracted.

Erasure is naturally impractical against groups of surrounding enemies because it's impossible for Shota to keep watching every potential target within a 360º radius.

Staying fully outside Shota's eyesight is necessary to avoid Erasure's effects, which can be done, for example, by covering oneself entirely with clothing or hiding behind an opaque structure.

Shota is particularly vulnerable to blinding light attacks, as those are meant to target his eyes specifically.

Smoke is also a massive deterrent to his work since it irritates his eyes (if he's near) and blocks his line of sight (if he's far away).

The after-effects of the injuries he sustained during the U.S.J. Incident had negative consequences to Shota's Quirk.

There is now a recharge interval between Erasure's deactivation and a new activation, with Shota requiring said interval to pass before he is allowed to use his Quirk again.

This allows fast enough opponents an opportunity to counterattack should they notice that Shota isn't affecting them with Erasure.

Shota suffers from dry eye syndrome, which limits the amount of time he can keep Erasure active.

Because of this, he carries a small bottle of eye drops with him at all times.

Celeste Victoria

**Celeste Victoria** died September 11, 2001 in the World Trade Center.

I remember when Aunt Celeste visited us in the Virgin Islands (she visited every year around the same time)...It was less than a month before 9-11. I had given birth to my first child on 8-19 and Auntie was able to see and spend time with her. My Aunt was hard working vibrant, friendly, she loved the beach with a passion, and enjoyed the company of family and friends. Before she left for New York, she discussed her plans to permanently reside in St. Thomas, United States Virgin Islands upon her return. She loved to eat coconuts and local fresh fish

In our culture it is said, when a child is born a member of the family will pass to the next life...It is the way the earth cleans itself...As I was born in the memory of my Father Haile Selassie 1st and my ancentors, so is my daughter born in the memory of Haile Selassie 1st and her ancestors (Aunt Celeste). Each generation should stand taller because they stand on the shoulders of their ancentors. I am glad that we shared good times and am thankful to have benn part of her life. Aunt Celeste was cool and down to earth, we really enjoyed her company. My sister Daminah, told me of a conversation she held with Auntie concerning life. They both agreed that life was just for a time, and no one knows what is going to happen, so you just have to love the life you live and live the life you love. Wow, that discussion came up because Aliyah the singer had dided in a plane crash that very day. Our family and her friends will greatly miss her! Your heart lives on within us. Through her passing my daughter came to being

Daddy (Dale Rogers) Aunt Celeste's brother, Jasmine her daughter, Aunt Denise-her sister and the rest of the home circle; Every thing is going to be alright!

Haile Selassie 1st; Everything After

My childhood babysitter died recently, 12/13/05, of cancer. Before she died, she told us not to be sad, that she was going to Heaven to take care of the innocents that have passed on. Since she spent so much time helping survivors of 9/11, I knew she meant the child victims of that horrible event, . She always said that it was "terrible that those darling babies spent their last moments in fear". Well, Nancy, you can now help them and ease their fears. Give them all a kiss for us. God Bless you. Zoe, let my Nanny Nancy take care of you. She is good at it. --Abigaile Beaudelaire

"I was a student on an 'educational field trip' with Ann (Project Marco Polo) in 1994. I remember her love for big earrings and good food. I also remember her huge presence, despite her shorter stature. She was a no-nonsense kind of a gal, but she always made us feel safe and loved. I also remember her incredible sense of humour. I will never forget that trip or the horrible events on 9/11/01." ~Meghan Spyker, 23, Music Therapist in San Francisco, CA.

Sandy - Not a day goes by that I don't think of you and say a prayer for your eternal rest and the comfort of your family. I so treasure the fun trips we flew together when I was based in EWR and how you kept me enthusiastic and blessidly in shape! You were always the first one to head to the workout room.

What an inspiration.

I miss you my friend. Crystal Brown

Ruth McCourt

Ruth Clifford McCourt was a resident of New London, Connecticut.

She was born **Ruth Magdaline Clifford** in Cork, Ireland. Died at age 45 in the crash of United Airlines Flight 175 during the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks with her four year old daughter, Juliana McCourt, and a friend who had joined them for their intended vacation in Los Angeles. Juliana was her only child.

She was survived by her husband, and her brothers John Clifford, Mark Clifford and Ronnie Clifford. Ronnie was working in the World Trade Center but escaped just as his sister's plane struck.

A memorial to Ruth and her daughter Juliana was dedicated on September 11, 2003 at Mitchell College in New London, CT. Juliana was enrolled as a preschool student in the Children's Learning Center at Mitchell College. Also, a fund was created in their memories, The Juliana Valentine McCourt Children's Education Fund.

John Clifford:

Tragically my sister hit the tower building as my brother was on the ground floor. He's safe now. He's very traumatised. He said he saw sights he would never see again. Very sad. Very evil, but he's safe. I was very concerned when the two buildings collapsed, because I knew Ronnie worked in one. He phoned to say he made it, he was okay, traumatised, that he was within an inch of his life. He went through the front door on the ground floor and a lady was about three seconds in front of him. She was hit by a terrific fireball. She subsequently died.

He said that unfortunately, while he was OK, he had a feeling that his sister - my sister - had left Logan Airport to go to Los Angeles with her daughter at around 7.30 in the morning. So we were then concerned that she may have been on either of the two flights that crashed into the towers, and that was confirmed.
