Our thoughts and prayers are with the families of the deceased victims and the injured survivors. The Advisen family prays for the recovery of all those affected by the horrific acts of terrorism at the World Trade Center, the Pentagon, and the Pennsylvania crash site. Many of our friends and colleagues had offices in the World Trade Center and we are stunned and saddened by the tragic loss of life.
