A Moment of Silence for Janis....

It is 12:01 a.m. Eastern Standard Time at my house and that means that 9/11 has arrived once again.


We all remember exactly what we were doing and where we were when we first heard the news about a hijacked plane crashing into the World Trade Center. Some knew immediately that people they loved were in danger; some of us found out later that terror was knocking at our door closer than we thought.


I knew Janis Lasden casually over the years. We met because we both liked country dancing. It's funny how even a casual acquaintance can affect your life so deeply because of tragedy.


Janis and her boyfriend, Don DiTullio, were on their way to Palm Springs for a vacation. Their trip ended when Flight 11 slammed into the North Tower at 8:46 a.m. on a beautiful September morning.


I always take a moment to remember Janis on this day. A very nice, fun-loving woman who loved her dogs and loved to country dance. Rest in Peace.
