Tragic recital a solemn start to the day

ONE by one, 2,801 victims’ names will be read aloud.

To the mother of the man whose name is first on the list, the tragic recitation will bring home to listeners the magnitude of the World Trade Centre disaster.

Mary Aamoth of Minneapolis, mother of Gordy Aamoth, said she and her husband, Gordon, would be watching on television today as former Mayor Rudolph Giuliani read their son's name at the ceremony marking the anniversary of the terror attacks.
