A Chance Meeting
Not long after arriving in America in 1999, Geoff Campbell was sitting at a Midtown bar one night. A woman started making fun of his British accent, but instead of taking offense, he simply laughed along with her. Afterward, they e-mailed back and forth, and he asked her on a date.
"It was one of those crazy nights," recalls Caroline Burbank about that date. "You have so much to talk about that you lose track of time." Mr. Campbell, 31, later proposed to Ms. Burbank and took her to visit his family in North Hampton, England. They had just returned from a trip there in August. Mr. Campbell, who worked for Reuters Consulting Group, "was just a gentle, kind soul," said Ms. Burbank, who shared an apartment with him and two cats in Chelsea. "If someone new came to the office, he was always the one to invite them out for a drink."
Today is 22 years since the attack.
I saw your story of the events that day.
I wish your family peace.
I wish you peace with The Father

Still remember the your smile on your face as you walked out of the office (15 Floor 3XSQ) waving the tickets as you walked out.
