Well said, Joan. I feel a bit awkward telling this story because I don’t think Sue would want any undue focus given to her response to that horrible time. Sue would be the first to say that it is not about her. It’s about the value of the humanity of those lost. It’s about the tragedy of their loss. These horrible events are clarifying in a way. They clarify what is truly important. So, I think Sue would say, if I can speak for her, that it really is about the love. It really is about the virtues of those now gone and how we resolve to show up in the lives of those whose lives we touch to keep those virtues alive.

Be there, Show up. What more can we ask from anyone?
I appreciate your acknowledging the gifts from both parents in the strengths found in their son. And what a gift to have a mom who can see and share the virtues of her son.

You’re right, Ziad. They could have gone along with everyone else on Wall Street and let the families fend for themselves. But at great risk, they did the right thing.

Wonderful compassionate souls. When most people and companies choose to simply retrieve and hold back emotional and financial support these guys let it all pour out. Great souls.
