Health department warns of West Nile Virus after Tropical Storm Ida BY DANIEL DUNAIEF DESK@TBRNEWSMEDIA.COM Tropical Storm Ida’s heavy rains may create a breeding ground for the mosquitoes that carry West Nile Virus, health officials warn. “Following the recent heavy rainfall, we are concerned that standing water and summer temperatures will allow mosquitoes to proliferate,” Gregson Pigott, Suffolk County health commissioner, said in a statement. “While there is no cause for alarm, we ask residents to cooperate with us in our efforts to reduce exposure to West Nile virus and other mosquito-borne diseases.” As of last week, 92 mosquito samples and four birds had tested positive for West Nile virus. From Aug. 25 to Aug. 26, 21 samples tested positive for the virus. At least one mosquito from samples collected in Cold Spring Harbor, Huntington Station, Northport, Stony Brook, Port Jefferson Station and Rocky Point tested positive for the virus, according to the Suffolk County Health Department. Most people infected with West Nile Virus, which was first detected in Suffolk County in 1999, have mild or no symptoms. Some, however, can develop high fever, headaches, neck stiffness, disorientation, coma, tremors, convulsions, muscle weakness, vision loss, numbness and paralysis, according to the health department. Over the last 20 years, the number of mosquito samples testing positive for West
Nile ranged from a low of eight in 2004 to a high of 295 in 2010, a year that also saw 25 human cases with three deaths. Pigott urges residents to wear shoes and socks, long pants and long-sleeved shirts when mosquitoes are active. He also suggested using mosquito repellent, while reading and following directions carefully. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommends repellents containing DEET, oil of lemon eucalyptus, picaridin and IR3535, which can be used on skin and clothing. For children, lower concentrations of DEET are preferable, according to the CDC. Insect repellents with permethrin should only be used on clothing and not directly on the skin. Effective screens on windows and doors can keep mosquitoes out of homes and living areas. Emptying containers that hold water, such as vases, pet water bowls, flowerpot saucers, birdbaths, trash cans and rain barrels can reduce available water sources for mosquitoes to lay their eggs. Scrubbing containers like pet water bowls can remove insect eggs that might otherwise survive. Adrian Popp, chair of Infection Control at Huntington Hospital, explained that most disease doctors are on the lookout for West Nile infections. He tests everybody with an unexplained fever or other symptoms. In a typical year, Huntington Hospital sees a few cases of West Nile. So far, Popp said, the hospital hasn’t reported any such illnesses. “It is hard to say if it will be more

prevalent this year since we had only a few cases in New York State so far and it is already the end” of the summer season, Popp wrote in an email. While Popp said anyone is vulnerable to West Nile Virus if he or she is bitten by a mosquito, most cases are asymptomatic. Fewer than one percent of those who contract West Nile Virus develop more severe symptoms. For those people who have more severe
symptoms, doctors don’t have many tools at their disposal. “There is no etiologic therapy,” Popp explained in an email. “Therapy is supportive, symptomatic care.” The county urged residents concerned about West Nile Virus to download a copy of an informational brochure called “Get the Buzz on Mosquito Protection” on www. suffolkcountyny.gov.

Memories of living in Manhattan the days after the 9/11 attacks
With our 4-month-old daughter in a stroller, offering something to the effect of “I appreciate we followed the same path so many others did your visit” and “I know what you mean.” When it was our turn to speak, we offered in the days after 9/11. We ventured to the nearest fire station, on East 85th Street in Manhattan, some version of our thanks, handing a gift to where several members of the rescue squad the people who would continue to risk their lives to protect people in the had died racing to the burning neighborhood. World Trade Center towers. The weeks that followed the We passed the familiar attacks were a blur, with images posters with the faces of people of the then-heroic Mayor Rudy missing after that day, taped to Giuliani (R) demonstrating almost every telephone pole, defiance and resilience on fence and door by relatives TV interspersed with hard-todesperate for a miracle. breathe moments when parts of People had covered a car the towers passed us on the roads on the same block as the fire as the city cleaned up the site. station with so many flowers Among the 2,606 people that it was difficult to see the who died at the WTC — then or car’s original color. later from injuries — I thought Slowing our pace, we about the ones I knew well. reached the station where largerA financial services than-life pictures of the faces of By Daniel Dunaief reporter for several years, I firefighters served as a memorial. regularly called analysts at Firefighters at the station greeted their guests with grace and dignity, the boutique investment bank Keefe, Bruyette talking about their fallen comrades, accepting & Woods. I frequently chatted with three of the food neighbors had purchased or cooked, them in particular: Marni Pont O’Doherty, Tom and taking other tokens of appreciation and Theurkauf Jr. and David Berry. While he was often in a hurry, Tom never expressions of shared grief. The car covered in flowers belonged to one of the rescue workers ended a conversation without his familiar, “Good to talk.” Two decades later, I can still killed that day. Some of the visitors lost the battle to control hear his energetic and respectful signoff. David shared quotes and insights without their runaway emotions, struggling to offer comfort through their tears. The firefighters changing his pitch, tolerating ridiculous questions comforted them, thanking them for coming and and challenging what I thought I knew.
A self-described “banking nerd,” Marni loved her job. I called her with all kinds of rumors about bank mergers and she never discounted any possibility. She would tell me why something might make sense. Often she would conclude by saying she wasn’t making the decisions and that bank executives had done stranger things. They were three of the 67 people who lost their lives at KBW. In the weeks after the attacks, an eerie graciousness fell over a city where verbal confrontation is a way of life. As we walked or drove through the city, we didn’t hear any car horns. A light would turn green and every car would wait for the people, who might be mourning a loss, to go. Everyone, however, didn’t come together then, just as people across the political aisle today rarely come together. Indeed, with attacks and hostility toward Middle Easterners rising in the weeks after the attack, numerous taxi and limo drivers attached bumper stickers to their cars, indicating that they were proud Americans or that they were, say, Sikh Americans. The flyers eventually came down or blew off poles and crosswalk signs, the trucks stopped hauling beams and other pieces of the towers, and drivers honked again. In the 20 years since, I have tried to balance between appreciating the privilege of knowing Marni, Tom, David and others and the agony of realizing all that they, and their families, lost.

They weren’t my best friends or my family, but they were — and continue to be — missed and remembered. And, thank you, Tom. It was “good to talk.” Daniel Dunaief writes a weekly science feature called the Power of Three and a weekly column called None of the Above for TBR News Media.
Former classmates will always be among those remembered after 9/11 My day on September 11, 2001, began like many others that Tuesday. It was a beautiful morning as I drove to my job in Farmingdale, listening to the radio. I can’t remember what station was on, but I will never forget the DJs stopping the music, shocked that they just saw on TV a plane crash into one of the towers of the World Trade Center. The radio hosts thought it had to have been an accident. But then I entered my office and headed toward my cubicle, and coming down the other side of the aisle was a co-worker saying another plane had hit the other tower. It was at that point we feared that our country had just undergone a terrorist attack. We all began to call our family members and friends who lived or worked in the city, and we couldn’t get through. That day, our office was closed early. Like many, I was numb as I made the trek home, but I was fortunate I didn’t lose any loved ones.
However, forever etched on my mind will be a familiar face in the halls of Hauppauge’s seeing the tragedy played out on the news middle and high schools. As for John, he and I attended school together and seeing people roaming from fourth to 12th grade.

I was extremely shy in school, so I wasn’t memorable events. When I think of Joseph and a friend to either of them. Joseph was simply John is when I get the saddest and angriest.
After 9/11, I realized how much my life resembled a quilt, adorned with patches left behind by everyone I have ever met and interacted with at some level. My quilt has many holes, and my former classmates are among the tears in the fabric. Americans have learned many lessons since that day. I have always hoped we could keep them forever. It shouldn’t have taken such tragedies to make us realize how fortunate we are to be Americans and to make us look around at everything we have and at everyone in our lives and realize how lucky we are, but that’s what happened that day. On the 20th anniversary of that tragic day, my hope is that we will forge ahead stronger, smarter and with more gratitude in our hearts and guarantee that those who passed away on September 11 didn’t die in vain.

Twenty years after 9/11 Stony Brook doctor continues to help first responders BY RITA J. EGAN RITA@TBRNEWSMEDIA.COM Dr. Benjamin Luft remembers the feeling of being prepared to treat 9/11 survivors and then no one arrived at the hospital. Stony Brook University was among local medical facilities that were prepared for the arrival of 9/11 victims when Luft was the chairman of the Department of Medicine. He said, like others, he had seen the towers falling on television, and from the 16th floor of SBU’s Health Sciences Tower, he could see the smoke from the World Trade Center. “The idea was that there was going to be real mass casualties, and that this would overwhelm the system in New York,” he said. Medical teams from various departments met in the conference room of the Department of Medicine, but he said “it became obvious as time went on, that there was no one coming to Stony Brook.” “It was eerily ominous, because we began to understand that either people had escaped the buildings, or … that there were relatively few survivors from the attack itself,” the doctor added. He said anyone seeking treatment stayed in the city, and the hospitals in Manhattan weren’t overrun as originally anticipated. Luft, who is now the director and principal
investigator at Stony Brook WTC Wellness Program, said after the tragic day he visited Ground Zero to see what was happening at the site. It was there he witnessed what first responders were being exposed to while working. “It was obvious that there was going to be a lot of responders that were going to become ill as a result of that, because there was a tremendous amount of dusts and toxins in the air,” Luft said. “There was a lot of fire, burning, and there was a lot of fumes that came off of burning plastic and electronics.” He added there were traumatizing events that people at the site experienced such as seeing bloody human parts and, for earlier responders, people jumping out of the towers. He said shortly after September 11, local labor leaders met with him and told him how many of those first responders lived on Long Island and were getting sick. He learned that while many were insured, their insurance wasn’t covering their health issues due to them volunteering and not doing what the insurance companies considered on-the-clock work while helping to clean up and recover victims at Ground Zero. The struggle of the Long Island first responders led to the development of the Stony Brook WTC Wellness program. In 2002, patients at first were just screened and monitored and then in 2005

doctors began treating them. Luft said in the early days of the program SBU Department of Medicine employees would volunteer to treat the patients. Over time the program began to receive financial resources to expand its services. Luft said the program follows the cases of approximately 13,000 Long Islanders in both Nassau and Suffolk counties, with one clinic in Commack and the other in Mineola. At first, patients were displaying acute reactions to their exposure. Cases included asthma, upper respiratory
disease, sinusitis and gastrointestinal disease, he said, due to the amounts of dust the patients had taken in during their time at Ground Zero. Over the years, the doctor said patients began developing illnesses such as cancer, but doctors have also seen psychiatric problems such as PTSD and depression. The responders “had seen people die,” he said. “They were in danger all the time.” Doctors are also seeing cases of dementia in patients. Luft said one theory is that when a person is exposed to certain toxins it can increase their chances of having dementia. He gave the example where areas with higher pollution have much higher rates of Alzheimer’s. With studies showing that patients with PTSD have cells that age more quickly, the WTC Wellness Program began monitoring patients. “We saw something that stunned us, and quite frankly at first we were very skeptical,” Luft said. “We went through a variety of different studies and tests to confirm our results.” Twenty years after September 11, the doctor said it’s possible that first responders will present with more health issues in the future, but no one can be certain with what illnesses. The Stony Brook WTC Wellness Program’s Suffolk County office is located at 500 Commack Road, Commack.
A son honors his first responder dad’s legacy BY RITA J. EGAN RITA@TBRNEWSMEDIA.COM He was only 3 years old when his father passed away. Matthew Brophy, of Smithtown, is now 19 years old and has no personal memories of his father Thomas Brophy. His dad was a New York City police officer for 16 years and was also a first responder at Ground Zero. His father died in 2005 at the age of 36 after
a battle with metastatic colon cancer. Doctors believed Tom Brophy’s cancer stemmed from his work at Ground Zero during the days after September 11. Matthew Brophy, now a sophomore at Adelphi University, has the memories that his mother Rita and loved ones have shared with him through the years. The stories have left him with a loving impression of his father. “I would describe him as a valiant, strong and charismatic individual,” Matthew Brophy said. Among those in his life who knew his dad are old friends, including Tom Brophy’s police partner Rich Seagriff and training buddy Matt Fagan. “His old friends treat me like I am their own son,” he said. The son said one of his favorite stories is hearing how his father lost sight of him for a brief moment at Best Buy when he was 2. The then-toddler had a SpongeBob DVD in his hand and started walking out of the store only to set off the alarm. Like his parents, Brophy grew up in the Hauppauge school district. He graduated from Hauppauge High School in 2020. When it came time to learn about 9/11 in class, he said the information was nothing new to him.
“I really haven’t learned anything particularly new in the school system about 9/11 and Ground Zero due to me being a child that was involved with it,” he said. “If anything, I knew more than the teachers about it. For the most part, it is taught just to be taught in history in the first week because the first or second week of high school in America usually falls on 9/11, at least in Suffolk it does.” Brophy added it’s not a subject teachers delve into that deeply and usually students are shown a video of the planes crashing into the towers. “It gets to a point where it’s so routine I genuinely feel offended, especially when everyone in the class knows that they’re in a class with a kid whose dad died from 9/11,” he said. “Needless to say, I don’t think it’s something that needs to be taught as of now, but in the future, yes. If people are still suffering physically from an event, that means that it is still undeniably relevant enough to be known.” Brophy was recently awarded a scholarship from the First Responders Children’s Foundation and is currently pursuing a degree in psychology. He also has been juggling three jobs. His mother said she is proud of him and “the man he is becoming.”

Rita Brophy said her son’s biggest quality is loyalty, just like his dad. “He is exposed to many friends with many cultural beliefs and he respects them,” she said. “Hopefully, his view in the world will continue to be open-minded and loving of everyone he meets.”

Remembering 9/11
Local former Yankee recalls his 9/11 experience BY KIMBERLY BROWN KIMBERLY@TBRNEWSMEDIA.COM On the 20th anniversary of 9/11, former New York Yankee and St. James resident Frank Tepedino recalled his experience during that fateful day. At the time, Tepedino, who also played for the Atlanta Braves during his sports career, served as a firefighter for the New York Fire Patrol for almost 20 years. It just so happened he was off patrol on the morning of 9/11, residing in his home on Long Island. His son, who worked for the New York City Fire Department, —Frank informed Tepedino of the attacks around 8:45 in the morning. “At first, I thought a pilot had a heart attack or something and I thought how unusual it was,” Tepedino said. “Everything started to click once the second plane hit.”
Tepedino was called into work immediately after the attacks due to the World Trade Center being a commercial building, which is what the FDNY responds to specifically. Jumping into his vehicle around noon, he remembered all the roads being closed off making it especially difficult to get near the city. By the time Tepedino made his way to the atrocity at nightfall, he couldn’t believe what his eyes were seeing. “I remember when they were filming ‘Godzilla’ in the city and seeing all the spotlights,” Tepedino said. “When I got to the World Trade Center it looked Tepedino just like that, like a movie set. It didn’t look real. There were spotlights everywhere because the power was out.” Being stationed in Manhattan for 20 years, Tepedino became very acquainted with the FDNY. They were only 15 minutes away from

the station and often spent time together at softball games and other functions. From the FDNY alone, 343 members died from the terrorist attacks on 9/11. Another victim was NYFP firefighter Keith Roma who was only 27 years old. Tepedino said they did not find Roma’s remains until December 2001. “We were there for a good two, three weeks working 12-hour shifts,” Tepedino said. “Everything was coordinated very specifically considering something like this had never happened before.” One of the jobs Tepedino had following the aftermath of 9/11 was to sweep the debris and clearing the manhole covers so the scuba team could go under the buildings to look for more survivors. “As time goes by, things are put on the back burner, but you have to look at the history of what has happened because what we’re trying to do is protect the people who cannot protect themselves,” Tepedino said.

We should forever honor all our 9/11 and post-9/11 heroes BY LEE ZELDIN

No more calm after the storm
When the remnants of Hurricane Ida made her way last Wednesday to the North Shore of Long Island, residents weren’t prepared for what was coming. Two weeks ago, meteorologists got everyone ready for Henri. Gas stations were empty, the supermarket lines went out the door and stores in villages on the water boarded up their windows. But nothing happened. It was ultimately a light rain. So, when Ida made her way up the coast, we all thought nothing of it. Boy, we were wrong. There was flooding all across the North Shore, and people didn’t think to prepare the same way they were going to be for the previous storm. Port Jefferson village was a muddy mess. Northport was practically under water. Stony Brook University had students sleeping inside the Student Activities Center because dorms became pools. According to the United Nations’ latest climate report published recently in The Washington Post, warming from fossil fuels is most likely behind the increase in the number of high intensity hurricanes over the last 40 years. Long Island has seen quite a few of those storms, including Sandy, Irene and Isaias. According to the Post, five more tropical systems are currently sweeping over the Atlantic so the hurricane season has only just begun. Will they be just as bad? What will happen if we keep making poor choices when it comes to the environment? If burning fossil fuels is one of the biggest influencers in climate change, then what can we do to alleviate that stress? We need to collectively do better to eliminate waste and save energy. Consider an eco-friendly vehicle, energy-saving lightbulbs and using more sustainable household products. But it isn’t just the increases in sustainable living that are important. Long Islanders need to ask their elected officials for help. For communities across the North Shore, we need to invest in ways to prevent damage to homes and businesses that sit by the water. We need to ask PSEG Long Island to consider and create ways to move power lines underground, so when high winds attack we won’t lose power for days. These are tall orders, but while the rest of us work toward doing better on a smaller level, we hope that Ida showed us all that we need to treat Mother Earth the way she should be treated — if we don’t, the flooding on Main Street will be the new normal.
This Saturday marks the 20th anniversary of the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, that forever changed our lives, our nation and the world. We all remember exactly where we were, what we were doing and the emotions of devastation, anger, resolve, uncertainty and unity that we felt. However, as time passes, pain eases and more and more Americans are either too young to remember or were not yet born, we cannot allow the memories to fade or fail to honor the ordinary Americans who became extraordinary heroes on that September morning and in the years that followed. In the two decades since the 9/11 terror attacks, thousands of Americans have given their lives to ensure that the pure evil of that day is never repeated. It’s now incumbent on all of us to preserve the ideals of the nation they fought and died for, honor their memories and take care of the families they left behind too soon. From the first moments after the North Tower of the World Trade Center was struck all the way to today, so many Americans have gone above and beyond the call of duty, in one way or another, to help our nation heal in the aftermath of the attacks and keep us safe from another attack in the 20 years since. All of the 9/11 first responders and members of the United States military who then served abroad have made tremendous sacrifices on behalf of our country and their fellow Americans. Many made the ultimate sacrifice. We owe it to these heroes and their families to continue honoring their service, but also making sure they have the resources needed to cope with and address both the physical and mental effects of their time at Ground Zero or overseas. Some of the most important and fulfilling work I’ve done in public office has been focused on helping our 9/11 first responders, Iraq and Afghanistan veterans, and their families obtain the resources they need and deserve. While serving as a New York state senator in 2012, I created the PFC Joseph P. Dwyer Veterans Peer Support Program — named after Dwyer, an Iraq War veteran from Mount Sinai, who tragically lost his battle with post-traumatic stress disorder — to help local veterans suffering from the psychological effects

of their service. The Dwyer program is modeled as a peer-to-peer support program for veterans suffering from PTSD and traumatic brain injury. Suffolk County served as one of four test counties in New York and, since then, the program has successfully expanded to over 25 counties across the state, saving lives and assisting tens of thousands of New York veterans battling PTSD and TBI. I have also introduced legislation to expand the Dwyer program nationally to ensure every veteran in America has access to a peer-to-peer support model to save their lives, their families, their jobs and so much more. One of my proudest accomplishments throughout my time in the U.S. Congress has been helping lead the charge to pass in 2019 the Never Forget the Heroes: James Zadroga, Ray Pfeifer, and Luis Alvarez Permanent Authorization of the September 11th Victim Compensation Fund Act, which fully funded the September 11th Victim Compensation Fund of 2001 and reauthorized it through 2090. The toxic air and debris at Ground Zero, originally thought to be safe to breathe by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, is now known to have caused more than 50 different types of cancer. Thanks to this legislation, named in honor of just three of our so many 9/11
heroes, first responders and their families can receive the support they have earned and will need for years to come. September 11, 2001, was undoubtedly one of our nation’s darkest and most trying days, and the consequences still linger today for our country. We owe it to the victims, their families, and all those who acted heroically in the days, weeks, months and years following the attacks to “Never Forget” the tragedy of that day, including the acts of selflessness and sacrifice that followed that embody the very best of the American spirit. Congressman Lee Zeldin (R) represents New York’s 1st Congressional District in the U.S. House of Representatives and is a United States Army veteran. He is also the presumptive Republican nominee for governor in 2022.

Opinion Six years later, another kidney stone makes its slow, torturous trek
T
he pain in my abdomen climbed from a relatively mild one, which pediatrician’s offices usually represent with a slightly puzzled but still pleasant stick figure face, all the way to a 10, with a crying stick figure in extreme duress, in under five minutes. Doubled over, I shuffled to my wife’s working station in our house and sat, uncomfortably, in a chair next to her. She started to D. None talk and then looked carefully at my face. of the above “What’s wrong?” BY DANIEL DUNAIEF she asked as I twisted in my seat. “I have serious pain in my abdomen and back,” I said. We knew what that likely meant. We’d been through this before, although last time was
much more terrifying because we had no idea what was going on. Also, six years ago, the mysterious symptoms, including searing back pain, uncontrollable nausea and vomiting and extreme discomfort, appeared and disappeared. I might have had some reaction to bad food, we thought, or I might have inadvertently consumed my food kryptonite, dairy. “It’s probably kidney stones,” my wife said, as she stood on my back to try to relieve some of the developing pain. I twisted on the floor, hoping I wouldn’t have to go to an emergency room that was likely overwhelmed with the latest Delta variant wave of COVID-19. I did the I’m-okay-and-can-tough-it-outat-home-but-wait-maybe-I’m-not dance for about 10 minutes before I gave in and shuffled towards the car. As soon as I got in the garage, I made a quick u-turn and headed to the closest bathroom, where I knelt next to the toilet and vomited. “It’s another kidney stone,” I sighed in between heaves. With a bucket in the backseat on the way to
the hospital, I contorted my body into different positions, hoping to find one that would offer some relief. The last kidney stone episode taught me that wasn’t likely, as I did everything but stand on my head in the basement all those years ago to ease the unrelenting pain. Fortunately, the emergency room only had two people waiting on a Friday morning. My wife spoke through a plexiglass shield with the receptionist, sharing my details while I disappeared beneath the counter into a crouched position. The receptionist directed my wife outside until I had a room. I waited on the floor, with the same bucket at my side, for a nurse to call me. During the 20 minute wait, the pain eased up just enough to allow me to breathe more normally and to sit on the floor. A chair was still not an option. The two other people in the waiting room were too engrossed in their phones to notice me. Once I was in an examining room, I called my wife, whose sympathetic eyes and encouraging words eased some of my discomfort. She answered questions from the nurse as I stood on the floor and leaned the top of my body over the
hospital bed as if I were praying. The nurse promised to return with morphine. In the few minutes he was gone, I felt closer to a four on the pain scale. I considered not taking the narcotic. The roller coaster ride along the pain pathway makes managing kidney stones, and so many other types of discomfort, difficult. Each moment of comfort is like a sliver of sunlight between heavy rain clouds. The doctor confirmed our kidney stone diagnosis. He thought I’d pass the stone that night or the next day. I didn’t have any such luck, as I fought through symptoms for 10 days. Finally, the obstruction exited. I was so elated that I jumped up and down in the garage with my baffled son, who was returning from an errand. As others who have had kidney stones can attest, the experience is extraordinarily uncomfortable and painful. I feel fortunate for all the support from my wife, children, brothers, mother and friends. I can only imagine what people hundreds of years ago must have thought when these stones made their painful journey.
Ordinary life blasted away by the extraordinary events of 9/11

he way my parents remembered Pearl Harbor is the way I remember the assault on the twin towers the sunny, beautiful September day that changed our lives. In both instances, our nation was attacked. For my parents, the attackers were readily identifiable: a hostile country declaring war. For those of us who watched the planes crash into the iconic New York buildings, the culprits were evildoers. Who were they? Why were they intent on killing the passengers on the planes and the Between workers in the offices, you and me all civilians? BY LEAH S. DUNAIEF At first, in our total unpreparedness, we thought it was an accident. The pilot had a stroke. The plane suffered a
mechanical failure. The brain struggles to supply an acceptable explanation for the unacceptable. When the second plane hit, we knew it was an intentionally horrific act. How could this be happening? Where were our defenses? I was on my way to HSBC Bank when the first plane hit. I had been told by the bank manager to come early because I was taking out a loan to buy the other newspaper in town, The Three Village Herald, and the closing was in the attorney’s office later that day. I got there a couple of minutes after they opened, and I was the only customer. The tellers were in the private staff room, watching the television and following the sounds, I wandered in just in time to see the second plane hit the South Tower. The two women in the room screamed as the manager yelled profanities. I had never before heard him so much as raise his voice. We were riveted to the television screen, smoke and fire pouring from the buildings, and then the phone rang. The manager left the room to answer it, and when he returned, he informed

me that I couldn’t leave. He had gotten the order to lock the doors of the bank to prevent a run, and he had immediately complied. I spent the next five hours in their company. The four of us stared at the television and saw the plane hit the building over and over as the networks continually replayed the footage. The sight will be forever imprinted on my brain. A tormenting visual over all these 20 years is one that I actually did not see. In my 20s, I worked for Time-Life on the 32nd floor of their building on 50th Street and 6th Avenue, opposite Radio City Music Hall. I had been delighted by the view from the office windows, the cars like toys and the people like ants in the streets below. I know how life unfolded right after getting to work in the morning in such a location. Women went to the bathroom to put on mascara and fix their hair, little preparations for the day they didn’t have time to do before rushing to the subway. Men lined up at the coffee trolley, affectionately called “the roach coach,” in the hall for that cup of java and maybe a Danish

to bring back to their desks to help power them through the morning. These are the ordinary activities in the first hour of work. That’s what ordinary people were doing in the skyscrapers on Tuesday, September 11, when they died. The killers took away those people from their wives and husbands and children and mothers and fathers when they flew the planes into the towers. Those workers are forevermore missing, as are the twin fingers pointing to the sky in the Manhattan silhouette each time I cross the bridge into town. And life goes on, as it always does, no matter what happens. We attended a New York Press Association conference in Vermont two days later, and people flocked to us when we stopped for gas and they saw our New York plates, to express their sorrow and their support. People flew American flags everywhere. For at least six months, everyone held the doors open for those behind them. Shared tragedy evokes kindness. We were all one that day.
