In this article, the Scott family had lost a loved one on September 11^th, 2001. They had certainty about their loved ones. They believed that Randy Scott, the father, died instantly when the second hijacked plane hit the South Tower of the World Trade Center.  Randy Scott worked for Euro Brokers Inc. on the 84^th floor, very close to the plane's point of impact. The family took some comfort believing that he might not have suffered. They found a note on the 84^th floor.  The note reads, "84th floor west office 12 people trapped." The note reveals that Randy Scott was not only alive after impact but actively trying to get help.

 

This day was a very sad day. I wasn't there to actually experience watching this happen, but just hearing the stories makes me sad. Many people didn't think that day was their last day. We need to live our lives like it's our last day. Randy Scott didn't know it was going to be his last day, but he made the most out of it. He wanted to save the 12 lives that were up there with him.  His family must be really proud of him. He was willing to risk his life to help those people out. That is a real trooper right there.
