A Very Quiet Life
Louis J. Minervino didn't really have hobbies. He had a job and he had a family. At work, he calculated figures as an accountant for Marsh USA on the 98th floor of 2 World Trade Center. At home, in Middletown, N.J., he helped his young daughters, Laina and Marisa, tabulate their schoolwork. Now they are college graduates.
Mr. Minervino 54, was dedicated and disciplined. He was married 26 years. "He was quiet, so quiet," his wife, Barbara, recalls. "He was so quiet we once asked him if he was in the witness protection program."
Saturdays were for chores around the house — chores he did with quiet precision. On Sundays, he would pile his papers on the dining room table to do office work. Some of the other habits he left behind: rotating his socks in the drawer, to put the most recently washed in the back; sharpening pencils to a perfect point. And knowing how to say goodbye.
"He never left the house without kissing everyone goodbye," his wife says. "He made a trip to each of the girls rooms to say goodbye. And then he came to me."

As I cross-stitched your name on the memorial that I am doing for all of the victims, I prayed for you and your family. Please know that your death was not in vain. We will always remember. God Bless.

I am inspired by Louis. He sounded like a quiet man whose actions spoke volumes. Thanks for sharing him with us!

Mr. Minervino was a nice person. He was the head of my department at Guy Carpenter before he was promoted to Marsh a couple of months later. He will be always remembered and missed.

I was so saddened to learn about about Louis' and you all have been on our church prayer list since 911 and in our family's prayers. May God bless him as I am sure he is in heaven and may God bless you here on earth during this tragedy. Pray that Uncle Tom is well also. Aunt Sue sends her love too....Love, "Joyce"
