Anthony was at his desk at Cantor Fitzgerald on the 104th floor on September 11. At 9:15 a.m. he called his wife, obviously “in a state of panic,” as the ceiling began collapsing on his desk, to tell her that he and other employees were going up 106th floor in an effort to escape the fire. “They didn’t have a plan; they didn’t know what they were going to have to do,” she said. But before their conversation was cut off, he told Diane that he loved her. LEO RUSSELL KEENE, 3RD MICHAEL DAVIDSON ANDREW ALAMENO JOHN S. SALERNO RICHARD B.
