A 9/11 Story of Love and Loss
Listen to a touching recording of Susan Rossinow, whose husband Norman Rossinow died on 9/11. She recounts how the couple met and fell in love. Her husband, a New Jersey native, was a risk manager and senior vice president at Aon Corporation. Norman introduced Susan to the drum beats that are signature of the syncopated rhythms of British singer Phil Collins, and he shared other favorites from his vast music collection.
He displayed his passion for drums when he played at the couple's wedding reception in June 2001. To honor his life-long love of percussion, his family donated a set of Norman's bongo drums and a tambourine to the 9/11 Memorial Museum.
