I was in Woonsocket Hospital in bed watching the moon landing. I had just had the meniscus in my left knee removed a few days before.

When JFK was shot I was in line on the stairs in Holy Trinity School. All the nuns were very upset and kept us in the lines an unusually long time before letting us back into the class rooms. I suppose they were coming up with the official school announcement about the event.

Challenger explosion I was at my desk at Pfizer. One of the Process Engineers was going around telling everybody.

911-- I was in the cafeteria at TI getting a morning coffee. It was on the TV in the cafeteria but nobody was there. I sat down all alone to see what was going on as the smoke was coming out of the WTC. I then saw the second plane hit. Then shortly after the towers came down. Watched it all unfold over a cup of coffee.
