[nagdu] Omar Rivera

[Michael Hingson]

Mr. Rivera is a pretty quiet guy who did not want to be as visible as I
chose to be. I have not heard from him in several years. Salty, like
Roselle, has passed. 


Best Regards,


Michael Hingson

I heard Mr. Pivera interviewed one time and he seemed very quiet and
unassuming. He was on a lower floor than Michael. Michael's story is truly a
story that is a must read though.

As I understand it Mr.  Pivera didn't want a lot of attention, and chose not
to talk about his ordeal much.  IT's hard for me to even imagine being in
either one of those Towers.  The dog I had at the time was kind of a crazy
dog.  I've often wondered how he would have handled the situation.  I think
Nova would handle a lot, as long as I spoke softly to her, and encouraged
her.  But I 
guess you never know until you're in a specific situation.
