REMEMBERING TRINI VICTIMS OF 9/11

FOURTEEN people with Trinidad and Tobago roots who were among the 2,996 killed in the “9/11” terrorist attack of the United States in 2001 have again been honoured. 

The American authorities and citizens linked together to commemorate the 20th anniversary of the worst terrorist attack on US soil. 

Observations were held at the three sites at which there were attacks and casualties. 

In New York, there was a readout of the names of all victims, and tribute was paid to them. 

The 14 people with T&T heritage who died were Conrad Cottoy, 50, Rena Sam-Dinno, 38, Joan Francis, Winston Grant, 59, Clara Hinds, 52, Stephen Joseph, 39, Glenroy Neblett, 42, Jerome Nedd, 39, Oscar Nesbitt, 58, Anthony Protillo, 48, Vinsoo Ramsaroop, 45, Goumatie Thackurdeen, 35, Boyie Mohammed, 50, and Paula Morales, 42.
