Colin Jonathan Ryan was born on Oct. 2, 2001. He will never know his father, Jonathan S. Ryan, who died at the World Trade Center on Sept. 11, 2001.
Mr. Ryan, 32, who worked at Euro Brokers and lived in Bayville, on Long Island, wanted a name for his boy that had his initials, J.S.R. ‹ like Jake Spencer Ryan or some such. In his absence, his wife, Maria, chose Colin.
"Our daughter, Autumn, just started calling her unborn brother Baby Colin," she said. "It seemed to fit."
There are many things Mrs. Ryan is going to tell her son about his father.
"I want him to know how many people his dad touched," said Mrs. Ryan, 31. "Daddy played lacrosse at college. Daddy was a bond broker. Daddy just went to work as usual, trying to make a living for his family. He was excited that you were coming. He knew you were a boy, but he wasn't sure if he wanted to know. This is how he found out: The doctor wrote down your sex and put it in a sealed envelope. A week later we went out for dinner for our fourth wedding anniversary. He needed two martinis before he could open it.
"When he did he screamed, `It's a boy!' "

I read Jonathan´s name today at the 911 memorial at Dulles International Airport - I did not know Jonathan, but I read his name out load so that others would hear me and know that we will always remember those that perished that day.

Remembering you always. Know that many students over the years have heard me tell your story as I teach them about that horrific day. Rest easy, my friend.
