A Continuing Honeymoon
Mike and Robin Gann were still waiting to take their "real" honeymoon. For their first, in July, they "eloped with the kids," Ms. Gann said, and went to St. Simons Island off the coast of Georgia, about 300 miles from their home in Atlanta.
Both had been married before, and this time they wanted to make it a family affair. First they went to St. Simons, where Mr. Gann had spent time growing up, then it was Disney World.
So it was a honeymoon, and it was not. But a sequel was planned. "The honeymoon was not over, not over at all," she said. "We were going to take another one this April. We were targeting for the south of France."
Claude Michael Gann, who would have turned 42 this month, was a salesman for Algorithmics, a software company based in Toronto. He had had many jobs in sales and finance, but in this one he was starting to feel settled. "It was in risk management," his wife said. "It was on a different level than he had had before. He liked the place he went to, he liked the people he worked with."
The only thing he did not like about the job was all the travel. On Sept. 11 he was at the Risk Waters conference at Windows on the World.
Remembering you today on 9-11-24. Though I didn’t know you or your family, or anything else about you, YOU will not be forgotten today.

Our family was in a small group with Mike and his family back in the day with the Vineyard church. When his first son was a baby. Mike, my dad and other guys would get together and play guitar together. We had lost touch with Mike and his family. Was sad when we heard about his divorxe and eben more sadden when we heard he died in the building. Mike was the sweetest, funniest, caring and God serving man of God. We will miss him. 9/11 changed everyone. But it opened our eyes to getting in...

Our whole family was in a church group for a few years at The Atlanta Vineyard. He and my dad would get together and play guitar with a few others once a week. He did praise and worship too. I knew him with his first wife. He was the most compassionate and loving , caring , selfless guy you could ever want to know. We were sad he died in 9/11. We miss him very much.
