The age of 9/11: Abraham Scott, 59

Sep. 16, 2011 - Abraham Scott, 59, describes his life in 2001 as being at its peak. He and his wife, Janice Scott, both had successful careers and were almost finished raising their two daughters, Crystal and Angel. The weekend before 9/11, Abraham remembers his wife filing important paperwork and telling her oldest daughter to take care of the family if anything were to happen to her.  The following Tuesday, Janice was killed after she went to work in the Pentagon. Even though he travels extensively, Abraham doesn’t fly anymore. He now runs a scholarship fund for high school students that he and his family created in his wife’s memory. (Whitney Shefte)
