Best Friends Forever

Judd

Joe

                                                                                                                      

 This here is Joseph Peter Anchundia he is 26 years old. He worked at sandler O’Neill & partners as an investment banker, and he had recently been promoted, which sure made christene Anchundia, his mother, very proud. World trade center, tower 2, 104th floor. Mr. Anchundia was a middle child and a momma's boy. Apart from growing up, going to school together, (doing just about EVERYTHING together), he also worked and shared an apartment with Judd Cavalier, one of his lifelong best friends. You know what makes it more comforting, if that should be possible? from what I've read, Joe was always an upbeat person, the kind of guy who would wake up at 6am, and whistle his way to shower, always keeping a smile on his face. So... not only was he having a good day, but if his life had to come to an end, he wasn't alone. Joe and Judd, inseparable in life, also became inseparable in death. Judson Cavalier, 26, who grew up in Huntington, worked at Sandler O'Neill & Partners on the 104th floor of the south tower. In his three years at the company, Cavalier, known as "Judd," had embraced the fast pace of Wall Street and was looking forward to a promotion from bond researcher to salesman, said his mother, Linda Cavalier of Huntington.What really surprised me the most about these two wonderful guys was that they died at the same place. it was really shocking to have found out that these people were very connected. They ever shared an apartment, they worked at the same place and they were even best friends since school.  Something that i learned from these two people and that i might apply to my own life would be to have courage,confident, and to be an honest person like they were. They studies hard, got the jobs there dream jobs. I think i would like to think that maybe someday, my life turn exactly as theirs did.  They got everything they every wanted in life. Someday i hope. my dreams come true for me too.

9/11 Jennifer Kane

Jennifer Lynn Kane

   

   Jennifer's name stuck out to me, I'm sure why, but the more I get to reading about her the more I can relate to her. She was always on the varsity sports teams in high school and college.She had two siblings like me, she was also a lifeguard as was I. Jennifer had actually saved a young boys life from drowning while she was on duty as a lifeguard. Jennifer later graduated from college and went on to work for Marsh & McLennan on the 100th floor of the World Trade Center. Through her office windows she could see the Manhattan's skyline. Jennifer Kane was 26 years old when this tragedy happened.

Joanne Ahladiotis

Joanne Ahladiotis grew up in Rocky Point and then moved to Forest Hills in Queens. At age 27 she died from the 911 attacks. She worked on the 104th floor in the first tower. She was described as full of good intentions and always having a smile on her face. Her nickname was "Miss Smiley." In high school she was voted best smile by her classmates. On the same year she died she traveled all over the world. Some places she visited were Bermuda, Greece, California and England. She said everyday was like a holiday and we should celebrate it like one. Her last week before she died she spent it in Las Vegas with her parents. Her mother said "It was the best week of her life." She was a role model to her cousin Roula Galanakis and spent a lot of time with her. Their hobbies were shopping and cooking together. Joanne is greatly missed by her friends and family everyday.
The thing that meant the most to me when researching Joanne was how much her smile seemed to affect everyones day to day lives. It is nice to see how someone can impact someone else's life by just a simple thing like smiling to them.
I think by just hearing how much she was a caring and welcoming person can inspire me to be more welcoming towards others and always have a positive attitude. Just the simple things she seemed to do would turn peoples days around. In addition too it shows me that small gestures can mean a whole lot more then you think.

Siew Nya Ang

Siew Nya Ang was 37 years old when she died in the September 11 attack.  She born in Malaysia.  She had 2 daughter who named Jeanee and Winnee.  She was a technical analyst for Marsh USA Inc.  When the American Airline Flight 11 crashed into the World Trade North Tower, she was in her office on the 95th floor.  According to her family's description, Aug loved study, loved her family, and always hard working.  She always took care her daughters and wanted to dress them up like a princess.  Her daughters were missing Ang and had a hard time to say goodbye to Ang.  After the 2001, Her husband and her daughters flew back to Ang's hometown and attended her memorial with Ang's family.  She was a great women with all her passions to her work.  A great mom and great wife.  I feel the September Attack was the more sadness events that happened in 21th century.  Most people lose their family.  There are many case like Ang's family.  I feel it is so hard for their children because they don't have chance to say goodbye to their parents and friends.  I think Ang was a hardworking person and she loved her family.  Why should terrorist killed people that they haven't done something wrong?  I regret their lost in the September Attack.
