I came across the heroic deed you've done while going through the 9/11 profiles and again made me cry. I've seen the documentary they made of you some years back. To this day, you remain a "Great Hero". Your family and friends are so lucky to have known somebody like you. May you rest in peace. Thanks for a wonderful legacy you've left behind...
