If I understand the lineage corr...</title><content type='html'>Dear Miss Eileen,&lt;br /&gt;If I understand the lineage correctly, you are the sister of one of my employers, Marybeth Brickner-Stevens.  She told me weeks, and weeks ago about your blog... and I look forward to reading past blog pages of your life and family.  My name is Penny Scarborough, from New Milford, PA.  (Also known as Podunk PA. ;)  Anyhow... I&amp;#39;ve been wanting to connect with you about your stories of 9/11... Marybeth tells me that you have covered a lot of information about this event... and I truly look forward to connecting with your stories.  I cannot even imagine the intensity, anxiety, horror, and hope that most New York citizens dealt with in those very short hours that day.  I remember my husband calling me from a client&amp;#39;s home to check in on me to make sure I was alright... and well... I wasn&amp;#39;t alright.  It was heart-wretching.  And that... is putting it mildly.  In my own home in the state of Pennsylvnia, I was so uncertain as to what was going on.  I was watching history happen before my very own eyes, but wondering at the same time, &amp;quot;how big is this, will we all live through this, and&amp;quot; the biggest of all questions, &amp;quot;who is doing this to us&amp;quot;!  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hugs, Penny Sue&lt;br /&gt;PS - Congrats on your Sisters in Faith award!  You go girl.  Have a great Monday.  I look forward to a wonderful relationship through blogland with you.  Take good care.  And live every minute as if it just might be your last... you never know!
