When Frank Reisman was single, mountain climbing was his passion. The summer after the end of college, he hiked the Appalachian Trail alone from Maine to Pennsylvania, picking up dry food that his parents, George and Evie, mailed to him at post offices along the way.
After Mr. Reisman married, family was his focus. Every evening around 6:15 he returned home, where his wife, Gayle, and their two children, Kasey and Dillon, always waited for him to have dinner.
Living in Princeton, N.J., and working at Cantor Fitzgerald on the equities desk, Mr. Reisman, 41, was the perfect suburban daddy, his wife said. He coached Kasey's softball team and took Dillon to golf on the weekends. He taught them how to download music from the Internet and ferret out useful information. Because he left home before the children got up for school, he always sent them online messages from work.
On the morning of the attack, he phoned his wife, who happened to be out jogging. He reached his mom. "He said: `I'll be fine. Don't panic, Mom. I love you,' " Evie Reisman said, as tears welled up in her eyes.
Old Friend
I know it's been over 22 years since 911. But I just recently heard about this from another old friend Larry Sperling whom I drove from Fort Lauderdale Airport to downtown Miami. I grew up in Fort Lee and played tennis with Frank and Larry. My memory was vague until I saw the gallery Bar Mitzvah pictures. That's how I remember him. We were all so happy back then. God Bless him in Heaven.

A la memoria de Frank (In memory of Frank)
Hoy me enteré de tu historia y de como al parecer intentaste escapar en descenso por la torre, lastimosamente no pudiste lograrlo; pero se que en algún momento pudiste clamar a Dios por tu salvación y se que muy pronto cuando venga nuestro señor Jesucristo podrás tener una vida eterna, a la familia de Frank les digo que crean en Jesucristo y la verdad de su santa palabra y algún día no muy lejano podrán encontrarse nuevamente con el.

In memory of Frank
I recently learned about your story, and it touched me deeply. Your strength, courage, and perseverance during the tragedy at the World Trade Center will never be forgotten. You fought like a true warrior until the very end. I offer my deepest respect and heartfelt tribute to your memory, Frank Bennett Reisman. Sending love and solemn remembrance all the way from Brazil. — Gabriel Henrique

Uma memória que deve ser preservada: Frank
Ontem, através so Canal "Verdade Mundial", tomei conhecimento dessa inusitada história, que enaltece a resiliência, sobretudo a preservação da vida. Infelizmente, não deu , por conta do colapso da outra torre. Mas ele tentou, tentou muito, foi corajoso e determinado! Sinceros parabéns póstumo!
(Translated from Portuguese)
Yesterday, through the "Verdade Mundial" channel, I learned of this remarkable story—one that celebrates resilience and, above all, the preservation of life. Unfortunately, it wasn't to be, due to the collapse of the other tower. But he tried—he tried so hard; he was brave and determined! Sincere posthumous congratulations!
