9/11 widows shun spotlight as 10th anniversary of attacks approaches
The "Jersey Girls" who fought for a credible investigation into the attacks of September 11 have made their lives
the many faces and names that appear after the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, few were more evocative to Americans as the "Jersey Girls".
were four women in New Jersey, whose husbands died in the tragedy and continued to campaign for a national commission of inquiry into the attacks. By going to win his fight to be heard in Washington, the four become powerful representatives of the victims of 9 / 11. But now, as America prepares for the tenth anniversary of the attacks of emotional Jersey Girls seem to have adopted a new life away from media attention. It will keep your private pain.
"I do not define my life as a widow. I feel that I will not let me define why I spent the 9 / 11. It is healthier for me. My husband left and he did not return, "said Kristen Breitweiser, 40, the
Observer
in an interview. Breitweiser said she would spend the anniversary comes 12 year old daughter with her. "Take a walk along the beach," he said.
These sentiments were echoed by other Jersey Girl Lorie Van Auken, 56, who spend the day watching his daughter appears in a concert in New York. "Life goes on," he said.
For many years the Jersey Girls were the most open in the attacks. Each had lost a husband in the most terrible. Spouse Van Auken, Kenneth, was a bond trader at Cantor Fitzgerald and called his wife to tell her he loved, after a quick flight.
Mari
Breitweiser, Ronald, was senior vice president of Fiduciary Trust International. Investigators found her wedding ring in the smoking ruins of the World Trade Center, but not much else. Patty Casazza husband, John, also worked at Cantor and was only 38 when he died. The last member of the quartet was Mindy Kleinberg, whose husband, Alan, was another employee of Cantor.
- The four got together and, before the official intransigence, campaigned with the relatives of victims of others to create the Committee on 9 / 11.
