Margaret Alario Obituary
Because Peggy Alario's Bronco was always the first one in the commuter lot and the last out, her friends on Staten Island staved off alarm as the hours passed on Sept. 11 and her little green truck was still parked there. But Mrs. Alario, a manager at Zurich American Insurance Company, had been at a meeting on the 105th floor of 2 World Trade Center.
With only a high school diploma and some college courses, Mrs. Alario, 41, put in 12- hour days and Sundays, proudly building a career that had her working on national and international corporate policies.
Her most successful partnership, however, was her 18-year marriage to James, who worked at home so he could watch their two sons. "I did everything around the house for her so she wouldn't have to worry and could spend time with the boys," said Mr. Alario of his vivacious, outgoing wife, whom he met on the dance floor and who still loved dancing at Rod Stewart concerts.
Mrs. Alario always got home for the final Little League innings, to supervise homework and put the boys to bed, making the sign of the cross over their foreheads. Only then would she put on running shoes and tool around the neighborhood for a good 45 minutes. "She worked so hard so we could retire early together," Mr. Alario said.

In 1996 I came to NYC from Tashkent, Uzbekistan for 3 month training program with AIG. Peggy Alario was appointed as one of my mentors. She has generously shared with me her professional knowledge. I was impressed by the skill this graceful lady was handling with her proffesional domain - the accounts of giant international fashion industry corporations. Peggy's kind and cheerful personality is not to be forgotten. Let her soul rest peacefully in heaven.

Although I did not know Margaret, her memory should live on. I picked her card which had a picture and a short bio of her at my university's memorial table on 9/11. I instantly researched her and wanted to get more insight into the life she lived. She seemed like a wonderful mom and wife, who deeply loved her family and prioritized all her down time to spend as much time with them as she could. As a college student, she is an inspiration of someone who could balance work and family, something we all strive for. I hope her family is comforted by their memories together and the inspiration she is to the world.

Rest in peace Peggy. You are always remembered.

That day is still fresh in the minds of so many. It was and continues to be a sad day. I encourage anyone reading this to read Psalm 72:12-14 the lives of the poor and their blood will be precious in God's eye. May the God of comfort continue to be with your family.

Hi Peggy. Yesterday I proudly waited for your name to be called at the Memorial. I cried and felt anger and sadness. It feels like just yesterday we were watching our boys play ball. I called your husband and caught up on your sons lives. They are doing great. That is proof that you are with them and guiding them with your motherly love!! RIP.

Hi, my name is Gary Stockbridge. I am a motorcycle rider in this years memorial ride for 911 victims. I have ridden a few years and if you are not familiar with the ride you can find the details at americas911ride.org. We have close to 3,000 riders this year. They cut off the registration at the number of victims from that terrible day. This year when we started the ride they gave us each a card with a name on it to remind us of why we ride, and who we are riding for. I was given Peggy’s name. It really hit home to me when they gave us the cards and it was as if I was given a passenger to take along on the ride and to make sure she knew we had not forgotten about her, and that we will always keep her in our hearts, and in our minds. As I write this I am in Somerset. I have Peggy’s card on the front of my bike so she can have a good view. I took her to the memorial site tonight. Tomorrow we ride to the Pentagon and Saturday to New York. I can’t imagine the sorrow her loss must have brought to so many, and even though I never knew her, I find myself saddened by the fact that I will never actually get to know her. I don’t know if anyone is still checking this guestbook or if this will help anyone, but I needed to post it anyway.

Last Wednesday I visited the USS New York, and proudly wore Peggy's Mercy Band Bracelet. I walked on that boat with tears in my eyes, as I looked at the bow of the boat and thought of it's origin and the lives lost that day. It was a day I will never forget. I pray every day for the family and the victims.

I am doing this for a projet in my english class.. But it is more than that. Margaret's story stuck out from many others because i have had a mother that was not that great at it and to see that this woman was just trying to do what it took to help her family and build her career and it ended up like this was very tragic and it makes very emotional to see that this innocent woman had this happen to her. There are many others that deserve our respect from that tragic day but personally Margarets story touched me deeply and I keep her sons and husband in my thoughts and prayers... erin

I wear the Mercy Band bracelet for Margaret (Peggy) Alario, and not a day goes by that I don't pray for her and the family, and all the victims of 9/11. I only wish I could just hug the family, and let them know how I feel. Her smile is beautiful, and the family should be proud to have had such a wonderful person in their lives. Just remember that I'm a stranger, but yet I feel a part of her life from seeing her face, and wearing her bracelet. I will add her name to the prayer book at my church, it's the least I can do.

Peggy was a very polite, kind, sweet, wonderful young lady when I had the privelege of knowing her. I went to St. Joseph's R.C. Catholic Grammar School, in Rosebank, Staten Island, New York, with Peggy, way, way back - from 1967 to 1973. I remember her as Maragret, but her closet friends called her Peggy.
She was always very nice, kind and considerate to everyone around her. I am so saddened to hear of this horriifc tradgedy, and I pray to God, for Peggy, & her family.
It seems that God always seems to take the people who are the kindest, and nicest, in this bizarre world we live in. I have not seen Peggy since we graduated Grammar School b ack in June 1973, but I will always keep Peggy's memory, in my heart, in effort to keep her alive, and I pray to God, for nothing but the very best for her family, who was so fortunate to have such a wonderful person in thier lives, if even for only just a short while, as she was so special, and I truely feel, that just knowing her, way back when we were just kids, makes me feel blessed & warm inside my heart.
God bless Peggy and her famly.. May the faith never ever weaken, for Peggy's loving soul will forever live on.
God has a plan for all of us, and although we can not understand his plan, these things happen while God's love is all around us, and will keep us true to him, and ourselves, even during life's most difficult & most painful times.
Peggy, was a quiet kind of girl, who would never cause or wish pain or bad things, on anyone. She will live forever in our Hearts,
Sincerely,
Mike Graf

Peggy was my 1st cousin and all I can say is:
We thought of you with love today,
but that is nothing new.
We thought about you yesterday,
and days before that too.
We think of you in silence.
We often speak your name.
Now all we have is memories,
and your picture in a frame.
Your memory is our keepsake,
with which we'll never part.
God has you in his keeping,
but we will always have you in our heart!
Until we meet again,
find peace in Heavens Hands!
Love and miss you deeply!!

Peggy,
The pain of your separation from your family is still very real here and is overcome only by our assurance of the joy you now experience in the arms of Jesus. I ask that you intercede in prayer for all of us you have left behind as we continue our journey to the Father. Pray that we may accept His will in our lives and live according to His precepts.

During this time of the year- anniversary of the 9/11 tragedy, I wanted to extend my deepest sympathy to Peggy's husband and sons, her parents and the rest of her family, friends and all who knew her.
I knew Peggy at Curtis HS during the 70s. We weren't close friends, but classmates. I'll always remember her as having a real personality and how friendly she was. She would write "Peggy lvs. Gerard" all over her books. I also remember she graduated early, in January ahead of most of us.
I know others who died that day at the WTC and no words can really ease the pain, but knowing others care and share your burden may comfort you. September 11 is the Holocaust of our generation, and we will never forget.

Peggy:
You have been so much on my mind lately. With the 1yr anniversary coming up I guess it's hard not to think about you.
I know you are up in Heaven looking down on your husband and boys. I am sure not a day goes by that they don't miss you or love you even more.
We knew each other only through traveling and commuting together on the bus, but you made such an impact on me, by the way you lived your life and loved your life & family.
From the conversations we had while traveling, I knew how much your family meant to you, you were always so clear & focused when it came to family.
God Bless You !

May God's blessings of love and healing be with you all, every moment of your lives.

To the family of Peggy - my heartfelt condolences. I knew Peg as we rode together on the 17x at night. I always liked talking to Peggy as we would talk about our children. I always admired Peggy and know how much family meant to her - I recall so vividly how she always spoke so lovingly of her 2 boys - she adored them and her husband. When I first saw her pic in the SI Advance I have to admit to crying and praying it wasnt true, but unfortunately it was. Again my deepest sympathy and May God be with all of you at this very sad time. Sincerely,

We are deeply sorry for your loss of Peggy. May her hard working skills, her life and love continue living in you. May the sorrow in your hearts be lightened by the precious memories of moments shared with Peggy. Our hearts cry with you.
America Cries
We see your sorrow-
and our hearts cry....
We can not erase your pain
but you do not have to face the anguish alone-for we-
-the American people-
are beside you.
We so desperately want to have the touch that brings you comfort,
the strength that gives you courage,
and the words to lighten your spirits.
And when we are left speechless
may the silence of our nation weave love into your hearts
to ease your sorrow.
May you find healing through our nation's strength as we-
-the American people-
face this difficult time together. Our hearts are with you. Teresa Jahn

I always ask Frankie & Vita how you're doin'. Our prayers are with you. I do not go through a day without thinking about you & the boys. The following prayer has helped me in the past. Do not stand at my grave & weep,I am not there,I do not sleep. I am a thousand winds that blow,I am the diamond glints on snow. I am the sunlight on ripened grain,I am the gentle autumn's rain. When you awaken in the morning's hush, I am the swift uplifting rush. Of quiet birds in circled flight. I am the soft star that shines at night.Do not stand at my grave & cry, I am not there, I did not die. . . Take care of yourself & your Family...FP.

Dear Jimmy, James & Dante:
As part of Oscar's van group, traveling in and out of the city everyday, we came to know and love Peggy. Sweet, smiling Peggy! I was fortunate to still meet her every once in awhile going home on the bus and at Mass at St. Patrick's Church.
Through Peggy we came to know you and the boys who she loved so very much.
This tragic event has brought so much sadness to all of us.
May God give you and your sons the strength to bear her loss. Peggy will live on always in our hearts.

That was a beautiful story told by her husband. Very truly beautiful. I just wish her husband and family all the luck and love, I hope you all have found peace in your hearts. This was a terrible thing that has happened for no reason but as she said "Keep the
Faith". She's still with you!
My deepest sorrows goes out to you.
God Bless. Amen.

To the Alario Family:
I have many fond memories of Peggy when we were passengers on Oscar's bus many years ago.
Oscar would refer to us as "my people" and we certainly were his people making our daily trips to and from work and developing many friendships along the way. It was a special, uncomplicated time and we had many laughs going through bridges and tunnels and blizzards and rainstorms because of our special bond and because of people like Peggy.
We were all brokenhearted to learn that she was a victim of this tragic event.
I will remember her beautiful smile and her devotion to all of you. I will miss seeing her at Mass on Saturday at St. Patrick's Church instilling in her children the need to have faith, which we must cling to in the days and years ahead.
I just wanted you all to know that my heart goes out to you in sympathy and friendship, which you have in full measure.

Mr. Alario and sons, your wife/mother sounds like an extraordinary person. What a hard worker! I am so very sorry for your loss. Amidst the horror, please don't lose sight of the beauty that still exists. You may have to look harder for it through the veil of grief...it's there...in a sunset, a lovely little squirrel, the constancy of the seasons and tides, sun and moon. Keep peace in your heart, not hatred and anger. The country is with you in your darkest hours...much love and tight hugs

I am the same age as Peggy and am also the mother of two. I am so sorry. You are in my prayers. Your story has touched my heart.

My heart is deeply touched with sympathy and sorrow. I am depressed and angry of the lives we lost in America. Now we need pray, and the courage to stay strong. God Bless America!
