Barrington Young Obituary
From her office at J.P. Morgan Chase's offices in Garden City, on Long Island, Margaret Foster Young had a good view on clear days all the way to the World Trade Center, where her husband, Barrington L. Young Jr., managed the telecommunications systems for Euro Brokers.
When she got to her desk, she would wave and imagine her 6-foot-3, 270-pound bear of a man waving back from the 84th floor of the south tower. Her office mates could not resist teasing her.
"You must really love that man!" they would say. True enough, although it had taken her awhile to realize it. Originally, he was just Barry, the big brother of her junior-high friend Grace, and one of their close-knit crowd of young Jehovah's Witnesses in the Laurelton neighborhood of Queens. He had been married and divorced, and she had been engaged to someone else, before they clicked for good in 1995.
Mr. Young, 35, was last seen tarrying to gather papers.
"I was hoping he wouldn't be himself for once," said Mrs. Young, who imagined her husband encouraging others to go before him. "I could see the flash when the second plane hit and when the buildings collapsed. I wish it had been a cloudy day."

In honor of those lost on 9/11 and to those who were my clients, my dear friends- whose kindness paid tribute to my life's successes- Steven Chucknick and David Vera- both who I last spoke to that very morning, at 8:46am and was told of their needing to evacuate their South Tower because of a fire' in the next building - who together with Barry Young and Jose Marrero of Eurobrokers, Beverly Curry of Cantor Fitzgerald, whose laughter I had shared just two months before at a summer celebration at Windows on The World, and Sal Fiumifreddo of IPC Information Systems, whose own son and mine were born just a month apart NO DAY SHALL ERASE YOU FROM THE MEMORY OF TIME'.
Days, months, minutes and 20 years since- every memory of your voices, laughter and goodness lives eternally. In these 20 years, my days have begun and will continue with prayers for your peaceful rest and God's comfort and blessings to your loved ones. You are spoken of, thought of, always, always missed and I will never forget.

Let us not forget to pay tribute and remembrance to those, who this week, 19 years ago, lost their lives simply by being at work; by simply- being. To those wonderful people at Eurobrokers, Cantor-Fitzgerald, and IPC Information systems- lost to us on 9-11-2001, today and always, you are those tiny bells of stars whose laughter will always be remembered. I look up to an illuminated sky and think of you always.
My dear friends- Steve, Dave, Barry, Jose, Beverly, and Sal:
"If I summon up those memories that have left with me an enduring savor, if I draw up the balance sheet, of the hours in my life that have truly counted, surely I find only those that no wealth could have procured me" -From 'The Wind, Sand, and Stars"
No matter the seconds, minutes, days, months or years that have passed, this day will always seem like just a moment ago. No matter the seconds, minutes, days, months or years that will come and pass- you will never- not for a moment, be forgotten by all of us who knew you, and whose lives you touched and enriched. Rest in peace and know, my friends, you will forever be remembered. Our laughs, your kindness, and all of what made you those amazing human beings will live always in my heart.

Afterglow
'I'd like the memory of me to be a happy one,
I'd like to leave an afterglow of smiles when life is done.
I'd like to leave an echo whispering softly down the ways,
Of happy times and laughing times and bright and sunny days.
I'd like the tears of those who grieve, to dry before the sun
Of happy memories that I leave when life is done.'
Barry, dear friend- the 'afterglow' of your friendship remains still to this day.
Always Remember

Another school year-underway, holidays- merely round the corner.
Lives- busy, things- happening, and another
September 11th- here-
A day to stop, reflect, remember...
"I am not here, I do not sleep. I am a thousand winds that blow, the diamond glints upon a snow's fall. I am the sun on ripened grain. The gentle autumn rain. When you awaken in a morning's hush, I am that swift uplifting rush of quiet birds in circled flight. I am those soft stars that shine at night; those stars that paint your sky with light"...
To those I knew for a quarter of a century's worth- you are more than the yearly pictures and names flashed for mere seconds on a television screen, more than just a name etched upon a granite slate- you are those amazing souls that I, and so many others respectfully regarded, lost as former clients who came to be my dear friends: Steve Chucknick, Dave Vera, Barry Young, Jose Marrero of Eurobrokers, Beverly Curry of Cantor Fitzgerald, and Sal Fiumefreddo of IPC- You are carried and live within many a mind and heart always. You are those shining stars which will forever paint the skies.
I will always be thankful to you for your kindness, your guidance, and above all else, the friendship I grew accustomed to- which every day, without, I am so deeply amiss of.
-Fanny

My dear lost friend Barry Young,
Preparations are being made for honoring you all from our loss of you 10 years ago. We are all 10 years older, yet time in our hearts has stood so very still and it feels like just yesterday every day when we think of you all. The world and how we live has changed since that day that began so innocently for all of you. I remember the first weekend after that tragic day- walking down the area, and wanting to scream out all of your names in search for you all and not wanting to believe you were all gone.
There's a memorial wall that has been built;engraved with all of your names. I look to the day of being able to quietly stand aside it, touch your names, look up to the heavens and ask God to continue to hold you all safely in his care.
Rest in peace, dear friend. You remain missed and in my prayers.

I never got to meet you personally, but your son has told me so much about you. From the way he speaks of you I feel as though I know you through him! I know you would be so proud to see the wonderful man he has grown into. Though I know the pain never truely leaves when you lose one you loved, I pray that your family and friends keep their hearts close to our Lord and Father Jehovah so that one faithful day when he awakens you from your peaceful slumber, a smile can cross your face seeing all the ones you loved there to enjoy Paradise with you. May Jehovah bless all our brothers the world over...See you in Paradise my brother. <3

It was just yesterday that we were laughing on the phone. I miss those days. I lost my best friend and I'm all alone. You are my brother, and only your baby sister can understand our friendship, and the love we feel for each other. You're resting and I know you'll be back and you know that too. I'll be waiting with open arms with an ice-cold Presidente. (ha) You never wanted me to make a big deal when you leave this earth, but I must say, I have to because you were the best brother I had. We only had each other and now Jehovah has you in His book of life. I miss you, I love you, and I'll meet you on the other side.
Love
Little Sis.

Barry,
We was co-workers at Morgan Stanley he was the man. Since that time we ran into each other on a lunch break in SOHO back in August. Just writing this makes me smile remebering him with that cofident smile.

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
