I will never forget that day. The night before I was busy with my former immigration customers, and especially, one Sudanese Guy I won't forget by face, although I forgot his name. I think his first name was Ahmed.
The next morning, Sept 11, 2001, Leiby Vago wakes me up and says a plane hit the World Trade Center. I was looking at it and I thought it was an accident. But when the second plane hit I knew it was something else more sinister. I did not go to work for two weeks. My business was basically shut down since we were two blocks from the World Trade Center. I was told that I had some clients who perished in those towers. I met one person from a distance, Shimmy Biegelson, who I saw in a bungalow colony when I visited the vago family back in the summer of 2001.
May the victims be a memory for the good and may G-d protect the United States of America .
