Went to work early that morning to get ready for a presentation/meeting in Queens, Maple Grove Cemetery for a new building they were planning to do...a columbarium.

Was listening to WABC770AM,Curtis and Kuby, and heard, LIVE on the radio the second plane hit, as a guy was being live interviewed after the first plane hitting.

They closed the bridges so no meeting...in Queens.

A friend and I went to a lookout point on the Hudson river and could see the plume from 25 miles away that morning. Yes I have the pics.

Was down at the site maybe four days later to see the utter destruction, have those pics too.

As the building of the columbarium proceeded at the cemetery they were burying fireman and others every couple of weeks at the cemetery.

Happened to be at 'the site' only a couple of weeks ago and just happen to pass by the panel with the name Christopher Pickford, he's buried out at Maple Grove...and we also happened to attend his memorial service.

Breathe.
