i am mildred yancey,s great great great grand daughter,she was married to edmund dillard page.i would like to express
my condolences to the yancey families of virginia.my
thoughts and prayers are with you in your time of grief.
my cousin john vanfechtman was in tower number six
goldman sachs building when the twin towers were hit,
he was on the twenty-ninth floor,and made it out,just before
the towers came down.he told his people to get out of the
building and get to safety,they got over to the water
side of manhattan and took the ferry over to the new
jersey side.he knew alot of the people that worked for
cantor and fitzgerald,some of them lived in his neighbor-
hood in middletown,new jersey.he lost alot of friends.
john emailed me the same day after he got home and let
me know that he was okay,and told me that he watched
it all happen from his office window.his office building
is severly damaged,the lobby windows are blown out
and a part of the side of the office building is gone.
i don,t know if they will attempt to restore the building
or not.they are afraid that the ground basement floors are
unstable where the trains and subways used to run
through,the hudson bay might flood out the buildings.
it,s a real mess there yet.but thank god my cousin
made it out alive.again,my prayers and thought,s are
with you in your time of grief.i,ve cried alot since
it all happened,but it,s getting better.it will over
time.if you need to talk,i,ll be here.sincerely
carla jean page,cousin to the yancey family.
