I had taken the day off to knock out some honey do list chores that I've been putting off from working too many hours. We had Fox News on and from the moment the story broke we couldn't stop watching and praying the entire day and night. I remember approx. 1/2 hour after after the first plane hit that morning one of my employees called me and asked if he could go home, for his cousin worked in the World Trade Center and he wasn't sure which tower.
His cousin was one of the fortunate to exit and survive this horrific event.

I can't imagine how his cousin must feel to this day.
One of my coworkers at that time had a sister who lived a few blocks from the Trade Center. At the same time, his parents happened to be in Washington D.C. on a short getaway. Everyone in his family turned out to be okay, but I remember meeting him at the restaurant we worked at and watching the news on TV in the bar together. He had gotten a text from his sister early in the day reassuring him that she was okay, but he couldn't get a hold of his parents for a long time and was very visibly shaken.
It was a very strange day.
