I use to work at the Post Office in the town that he lived. He always seem to be kind and always smiling. Wife Michelle, was so sweet and they have the cutest boys! Attended the service for him and was of the saddest moments in my life. Hardly knew him but was just amazed at how many he touch and loved. May God continue to bless his wife and those four boys to grow without a father. God Bless.
I was very sadenned when I became aware of of Gary's passing by accident 2 years ago. I met Gary at a gym in NYC in 1990. We struck up a freindship and became good friends. We worked in the same neighborhood uptown and would head down to the gym after work. Gary was one of those rare individuals that if he befreinded you , it was like you were a family member. He was always there for you needed him, always a joy to be around, and always willing to try anything that sparked his interest. I had boxed in the PAL and when he mentioned that he wanted to try the Golden Gloves, I warned him it wouldn't be easy. To his credit however, he saw it through and said it was one of the greatest athletic experieces that he ever had. Unfortunately we lost touch when my job was relocated and I was blessed with a new son which limted my time at the gym. I'm so sorry that we did.
I was blessed however to have gotten to know Gary, a great human being, even for the short time that I did. My deepest condolences to his family on this sad day.God Bless,Leo Kapakos, friend

Mary Lou, I think of you so very often throughout the year; however, I find myself drawn to search for every memorial I can find on this day of remembrance - so that I can let you and everyone else know how much you still mean to me. I am in complete shock that it has been 7 years since your beauty and grace blessed this earth. You are, and will always be, one of the most amazing individuals that I have ever known. As time passes, I will never forget and I will always hold a special place in my heart just for you. If only…I miss you Mary Lou!D. Brown, friend
I would like to let his family know that I am a firefighter in Colorado (Littleton). I was at a 9/11 memorial stair climb today put on by firefighters. I climbed 110 stories today (9-11-08) in full bunkers and pack in memory of Lt. Glenn Wilkinson. He kept me motivated and inspired. I would love to contact his family somehow.ThanksTim Urban303-725-1198

Stephen, forever you will be in our hearts. You are never forgotten. I think of that day, 9.11.01, every single day of my life. we will NEVER forget you. Gone in body, but not in spirit. Your family has been so strong all these years, and I know that you will continue to look out for them.
Your son makes me so proud of being an American. Americans and indeed civilized peole throughout the world have be so thankful for the sacrifice he made in such a far off place to keep that 13th century, brutal regime from coming back to power in the country which harbored those who attacked us on Sept. 11th, 2001. I know God has already welcomed him but I pray that God sends some comfort to you, his parents, in what has to be a horrible time. Bill Grant, Sarasota, FL
To Mrs. Havlish. Mrs. Havlish, I had commuted with your husband for years. We use to say good morning to one another every day. On very bitterly cold days, your husband and I use to be on the train platform in Trenton smoking. I am a smoker like your husband was. I still am today. When Amtrak use to have the smoking cars, your husband and I would be in them.Sincerely, Nick Taylor
I can still remember you on the day this photo was taken, my wedding day. How I miss all the years we could have shared together, thus far. I will never forget you and think about you oftern. Missing you always, Carolyn ~ BCF
Dearest Alan: On this the anniversary of losing a loved one and friend I think of you. The events of 9/11 were so incredibly tragic and moving. But learning that you were among the victims, personalizes it for me and makes it all the more heartwrenching. I think of many memories I have of you. I was blessed to know you...I attended mass, took communion and lit a candle today in honor of your memory. I pray that your family is coping with your loss. You will never be forgotten. I am confident that you are at peace and in a far better place than us. We all miss you. Til we meet again.... Pat Dobler
One of the nicest people you could know. Even though I didn't know Michelle that well - we were co-workers - I know that she is the kind of person who is missed in the deepest kind of way.
Colleen,I will never forget any of you. I wanted you to know this today - September 11, 2008.May you Rest in Peace. Way too young to have lost your life.Shari

Noreen & Stephen--I don't know if this will get to you, but I had to try. It's Kristin Phillips--Colleen's old rommate from Hoboken. I always wake up thinking about you on 9/11, and of course, of Colleen. My heart is with you today and prayers and thoughts always. I hope it is the slightest comfort to you to know what an affect your daughter's life had on people--the world. God bless you! Kristin, Fairhope, AL
I can't believe it's been 7 years since you've been gone. I remember all the good times we had together. I it's not just on 9-11 that I think of you. It is all the time. You are greatly missed and will never be forgotten.

It's been 7 years - you're still missed. Kimmie has passed and I know if she were alive she would post a poem or thought but she died in 2003 of heart failure(I know she is with you) you were such a good friend to her and Sekou.On this day when I feel the wind on my face I will know it's both you and Kimmie. God bless baby girl (Chris's daughter). I pray for her always as well as my daughters son, my son's daughter. The losses are overwhelming. Much love to Christopher's family.
7 years today, and needless to say I miss you as much as always. You are forever embedded in my heart and your smile in my memories. Every so often you appear in my dreams to console me and tell me you are alright. Unfortunately it is a fleeting comfort. We love and miss you Mama Jane.
Seems like yesterday...I remeber jogging in my old neighborhood that morning and seeing so many stars in the morning sky. I love you sis. Being your little brother, I always knew you were out there acting and being a star. You're a star forever now.

Jeff & Judy:I was horrified to hear of Nick's death. I remember the times I spent at your Mom and Dad's home. My parents were Andy and Mary Knowles. Your grandmother was my Great Aunt Rose. When I would visit Aunt Clara & Johnny I would spend time in your play houses in the backyard in Ludlow. I remember the wonderful picture of the three of you hanging in your mom's & dad's house. Your mom would always send me home with a bag full of walnuts. It is a shame we lost contact after your mom's passing. I think of Nick every now and then but especially on 9/11. My deepest sympathy is with you and your families.Barbara Knowles

When Chrissy and Sean got married, our family married the Murphy Clan and were the better for it. Jimmy was always at the center of some funny story or joke at family gatherings. That's how I'll always remember him.
I knew Manette very well; she and my mom were close. Although this happened seven years ago, I still think I'm going to hear my mother say "I just got off the phone with that crazy Manette." It's not until another September 11 passes that I realize that won't happen, and it never gets easier.A funny, gorgeous, outspoken, intelligent woman and mother; Manette will truly be missed, I miss her. I know her spirit will remain with everyone in her life, and she will continue bless everyone she loves.
To this day I can still remember your simple act of kindness to a lost freshman who just stepped off the bus. It was a rainy September day, and you helped me carry my suit case and walked with me to where I needed to go. I don't think I'll ever forget that.
