On the morning of September 11, 2001, Beverly Eckert waited anxiously by the phone, knowing it would ring. It had almost become certain it would be the last time she would hear her husband Sean Rooney's voice. The hijacked United Airlines Flight 175 had just crashed into the World Trade Center and Rooney was stuck on the 105th floor with no means to leave the building. Rooney had called and exchanged messages with her after the attack. She headed home immediately and waited for his call. He told her the stairs were filled with thick smoke and there was no way out. With time running out, he dedicated his final moments to reminiscing their joyful life together, repeating 'I love you' to his wife, over and over. Beverly Eckert was his high school sweetheart. They had met when he was just 16 at a high school dance before eventually getting married. Eckert held on to the phone tight, aware that this was their last moment together.
