Mary Lou Hague was 26 years old and from New York, N.Y. (Born: Marietta, Ohio). Mary worked as a financial analyst for Keefe, Bruyette & Woods, Inc. on the 89th floor in the South Tower of the World Trade Center.
Liza Adams, mother of Mary Lou Hague.
"I received a phone call from her and it was a quarter of nine and she said mother turn on the television, we think a plane has flown into the other tower but she said all I can see is flames and flying papers."
Mrs. Adams told Mary Lou to get out of her 89th floor office in the second tower, immediately. "She called me back and said, I have my cell phone, I have my purse I'm leaving now."
That was the last time a loving mother would talk to her 26 year old daughter, as the second plane crashed, 5 floors below Mary Lou's office.
"A parent never gets over, or heals or has closure with the loss of a child, you just learn to cope with it. I miss her every day and do whatever I can in the community to keep her memory alive."
