Mark Rasweiler was born in Brooklyn. He and his wife, Susan, had two grown daughters and lived with their teenage son in Flemington, New Jersey. On weekends, Mark and his son went canoeing on a stream near home to fish for smallmouth bass and trout. A vice president at Marsh & McLennan, Mark was at work there on the 100th floor of the North Tower on September 11. He was 53 years old.
New York Times Portraits of Grief
R. Mark Rasweiler bought a canoe about a year ago -- a 14-footer, fiberglass -- partly because he wanted to get out on the water more, and partly "because he wanted to spend more time with me," said his 18-year-old son, Michael.
Mr. Rasweiler's daughters -- Caryn, 27, and Lindsey, 24 -- had their own lives, but Michael was still at home. So father and son would take the canoe to a tributary of the Delaware River near the family house in Flemington, N.J., and head out for the Delaware, fishing for smallmouth bass and the occasional trout.
"We took the canoe out a couple of times," Michael Rasweiler recalled, "went fishing a couple of times, but I was so busy -- and he was so busy in his job" -- a vice president at Marsh & McLennan on the 100th floor of 1 World Trade Center. The floor plan shows that Mr. Rasweiler, 53, sat exactly where the first plane hit. "It's sad," his son said, "we didn't have the time to take the canoe out more."
