Anil Umarkar Obituary
Here is how to spell the name of Anil Umarkar's 14-month-old daughter, his most precious achievement, as specified by his wife, Priti: "V for victory; o for ocean; m for Mickey; i for ice cream; k for kite and a for America."
Although Mr. Umarkar, a computer programmer, is missing from the 103rd floor of the World Trade Center, where he worked for eSpeed, a division of Cantor Fitzgerald, his wife is determined that his ambition for his daughter, Vomika, will live on.
America, as in the last letter of Vomika, is the place where her father dreamed that she would get an advanced college degree. Although Mr. Umarkar, 34, will not be there to see it, Mrs. Umarkar hopes that victory, as in the first letter of Vomika, will come out of all the loss.
Two and a half years ago, Mrs. Umarkar, who has a master's degree in zoology, "left all that" in her hometown, Nagpur, India, so her husband could pursue his career. He loved football and had taken up jogging in Hackensack, N.J., where they lived. "He was intelligent, he was very loving, he was a very thorough gentleman, and his work was his only hobby, just to work," Mrs. Umarkar said.

My sincere sympathies to you and your family on the loss of Anil. You are not alone; I lost my brother-in-law, Jayesh Shah, also on the 103rd floor of Tower 1 at eSpeed. Perhaps they were together at the end.

Thank you for sharing such a warm story about Anil and Vomika's name. She will be a very strong young lady when she uses her dad's spelling lesson to help her through her life without him. We are very sorry for your loss. Our hearts are 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

My AP European History teacher, Mrs. Harrold, found this web site, and she gave us all a person. Anil is my person. Everyday, during second hour, we have thirty seconds of silence in which we pray for our people's families. I just wanted you to know that everyday I'm thinking of you and praying for you.
