One of the things that really personalised the tragedy was a recording of a voicemessage a woman who had died in one of hte WTC Towers had left on her home phone.

In the voicemail, the woman referred to her young son, tells her husband to "Tell the boy I'll always be with him."

For some reason I've never forgotton those words. It really captures the thoughts of someone who knew they were about to die....
