Beth Ann Quigley was 25 years old and from New York, New York. (Born: Red Bank, New Jersey). Beth worked for Cantor Fitzgerald on the 104th floor in the North Tower of the World Trade Center.
Although Beth was very happy with her position at Cantor Fitzgerald, she knew that continuing formal education was critical to her long-term success. She began a MBA program at New York University's Stern School of Business only weeks before September 11, 2001.
The Beth Ann Quigley Memorial Scholarship awards go to top eighth-grade female students at St. Leo the Great School. "We give the girls a letter that tells them about Beth. The winners get to know Beth that way and become more aware of what happened," said Beth's mother, "We're pleased with the scholarship program. We get back beautiful thank you notes and the first girl who received the award nearly 10 years ago just received a Master's degree."

What a beautiful tribute to Beth's life. Glad to see her legacy living on thru the lives of so many other young women.
ReplyDeletewatching a NetFlix vid and saw mention of Beth, the world is a smaller, darker place without her and all of those we lost that day, and in all of the conflict that followed.
ReplyDeleteAs her teacer, I remember Beth as a wonderful student and such a good person. She was always there to help and made a difference to all that knew her. Everytime I see, or am in New York I remember and thank God for her. She was special and she came to see me just before the tragedy to tell me that she had a job a job with CantorFitzgerald and was going to continue her education. I think of her often and mourn the loss but am so glad that others benefit from the scolarship. Always remember Sandra Quarg
