My GOD tremendous courage. I am a 60 year old Man , with tremendous THANKS to You all. I live in western PA . I just saw this this evening for the first time . And know I am saying a prayer for you for continued strength. You don’t know me but you have moved me with your story. Joey A
Very impressionable interview with Ann.. I have recently became a volunteer at the 9/11 memorial museum and it is extremely honorable being a part of history that should never be forgotten.. I’m a native New Yorker and was unable to help when the attacks occurred but I was determined to become a volunteer and it finally happened.
I went on the roof of the South Tower as a child back in 1994. I was 14 years old when the Twin Towers were destroyed. I miss them everyday.

You are so very lucky. I never got to see them sadly. I could have on a vacation trip to the East Coast in 1995, but we decided traffic would be too much of a pain heading into NYC having never been there. Should have gone for it.
I really loved Ann's story and all her perspectives. She's a wise woman and a great story teller.
What a great speaker- so many good points that I will hold closely. Thank you to her husband and her family for their sacrifices 💗
I've heard Ann's story before. But some points were new. I have such respect for her as a strong Christian woman!!❤
Thank you for sharing your story. These stories are healing for everyone. Your family flourished despite a horrific loss. It's a tribute to Bruce and you. Love and admiration from Joplin, Mo.
I think her husband is proud of her
Im surprised this video doesn't have more views.
Sending hugs
I always want my last memory of someone to be a good one, so I agree with her to not be there when the body was recovered.

I disagree me personally I would have to be there . Every one of us is different and I would want to be there for the body of the man I loved . No I wouldn't want my kids there but as a wife ya I would need that closure

I wouldn’t want to be either. For me remembering the person I loved how they were when they were alive is how I’d want it to be. I couldn’t handle seeing his broken body. These poor people. ❤
Ann seems like a very intelligent person
Thank you both for sharing your stories, because they are important. Not forgetting everyone we lost that day and I say we because this country came together that day and everyone that was lost became our loss, and every win also became our win. We hear the numbers all the time but knowing their names and their stories are also important. We have begun to forget 9/11 and what happened during and after. Thank you for sharing a small part of your family members, friends and experience with us.
So much PAIN confusion? Not for me personally. I was not at all confused about why it happened or who made it happen. It was painful to see that amount of LOSS . It was terrifying to witness how quickly they hurt us here at home . To be afraid in the land of the free. I always assumed we were protected from evil like that. How wrong I was . In minutes time that changed . My 5yr old sweet girl asked ...momma why do they hate us so much? How do you answer that? I bent down hugged her and cried

Confusion is the word she used to describe when it was first happening. I think everyone felt like you and we all thought we didn’t have to worry abut things like that so yes, for a little while there was total confusion.
Why was no one able to escape the North Tower above the point of impact? If they couldn't go down, why didn't they go up to the roof? I heard the doors were locked but why would that be in an emergency? Doesn't make any sense to me.
