Happy update of reassuring news items:

My Uncle David is alive and well! He lives in California and travels back and forth to New York all the time. I finally found my aunt, his sister, online, and she gave me the reassuring news that she has talked to him.

My best friend Tameka has a brother who was at the Pentagon and stepped out to get something from his car at just the right moment, so he is fine, too.

And beloved Faith in New York is fine and has found all of her friends who still worked in the WTC, and they are fine.

To my knowledge, no one I know was harmed.
