Thank you for sharing about TJ. He sounds like an amazing person and really smart. What a great way to honor him. God bless you!

yeah TJ was indeed astounding. I'm proud of him

It’s so hard losing a brother. I was the oldest of two. So I lost my only sibling and brother in 2013. I’m not whole - so many pieces are missing. I pray you have peace.

[@starboushe]

I have that same relationship with my brothers and sister. We’re so blessed to be close-knit and you reminded me to cherish every moment. You touched my heart when you spoke of your brother’s hugs. I can’t even begin to imagine what TJ went through on that day. God bless you and your beautiful family, Jeanmarie.

God bless you sweetheart ... no one can ever take these memories away from you xxxx

Jean Marie, losing a sibling is like losing part of your own body. I have 7 sibs too. Lost my brother and think of him all the time. He loved Kentucky Fried Chicken, animals and little kids.

[@RoyalPurpleStar]

How beautiful. I’m very envious that you have such great relationships with your siblings. I don’t even talk to my brother and sister, and I don’t even like being around them. I don’t know when I’ll feel like talking to them again, but they don’t ever make me feel good when I’m around them. So sorry for your loss, but it’s very touching and beautiful to hear how much you miss him.

After losing my younger sister, from a family of 6 kids, I had the exact same issue describing "I'm one of six...well no now its 5 Tim..". Its such a difficult thing because you know they're gone and don't know how to explain yourself to others. Its a mental battle you have with yourself over something seemingly inane but its a heartbreaking thing to work through and try to decide what you tell people when you're from a big family.

I’m so sorry you lost your baby brother that day! Mike, I’m so glad you weren’t able to get into those Roman candles! How is your health now? God bless you both. 🕊

It was not just people above 98th floor who got trapped...everyone above 91st floor perished. .

[@RoyalPurpleStar]

So even people on the 91st floor perished? I know the impact zone was from 93-96, and I read somewhere that a few floors down like 91st and 92nd were affected as well, but started don’t know how. Is it because the floors above collapsed down to the 91st and 92nd?

[@thenanlife1141]

No body could ever be prepared for this catastrophe ever

[@tamerraeb2363]

I am buying some M&M s in honor of TJ.
