Lisa Luckett’s life shattered on September 11, 2001. As the first plane struck the World Trade Center, Lisa witnessed America’s greatest tragedy on television as well as her own.
Lisa whispered the words, “Goodbye Teddy, I love you,” surrounded by her close friends as the buildings fell that morning. Her husband Teddy headed to his office at Cantor Fitzgerald earlier that day. As he left the house, the happily married couple said their morning goodbye, calling one another ‘soulmates’.
