Remembering 9/11: Ryan Kohart

Posted Sep 10, 2013
The memory Ryan Kohart's family will carry with them of his final days is not how he died, but how he celebrated what he had planned as his future. The Saturday before the attack on the World Trade Center, where Kohart worked on the 104th floor of Tower One, they all gathered to celebrate his engagement to Melissa White. Ryan had been captain of the lacrosse team at the University of North Carolina. (Newsday)
