I still remember how scared I was when I saw the news that time...

Very sad news. Can never 4get.

More than 300 of my ex colleagues were killed on the north tower. Our Marsh and Mclennan Hq offices were on the impact zone.

Sorry for your loss.. It must have been a super shocking news when you hear this the first time...

It was devastating but it was a big American corporation and it was back on its feet in a matter of days but the loss of highly talented professionals was irreplaceable.

September 11 saddest incident in the history of America.
