Ten years after Robert Fangman died in the terrorist attacks in New York City, his mother, Ruth, said accepting his loss “never gets easier.”
Ruth Fangman, a parishioner at Holy Rosary in Claymont, Del. plans to travel to her native Baltimore, where the Maryland 9/11 memorial will be dedicated on the 10th anniversary of the attacks. Robert Fangman's name will be etched in stone at the site in front of Baltimore's World Trade Center.
Ruth Fangman recalled this week that horrific Tuesday when she learned of the death of the youngest of her seven children, called “Bobby” by family and childhood friends. He was 33.
“He had been in Texas visiting his brother. He had called me that Saturday and said, “I'm on my way home (to Boston) tomorrow, and I'll stop in Delaware and see you,” she said.
