Donald Robertson, VP of Sales, Cantor Fitzgerald
New York, Sept. 27 (Bloomberg) -- Donald Robertson Jr., 35, vice president of sales, Cantor Fitzgerald LP.
Robertson, of Rumson, New Jersey, graduated from Lynchburg College and Montclair State University.
A day after a hijacked jetliner struck and destroyed the north tower of the World Trade Center, where Robertson worked on the 105th floor, a group of friends went to New York to look for him, according to the Newark Star-Ledger.
``What we did for him is only half as much as he would have done for us,'' Michael Fiore told the paper. ``I've known Donald for 30 years and he was always there to provide moral, financial or whatever support you needed.''
His father, Donald Robertson Sr., recalled how, at a family gathering this summer, his son was spontaneous with affection.
``He came out of nowhere, put his arm around my neck, and says: `Pop, I love you,' and gives me a kiss,'' Robertson Sr. said in the Star-Ledger.
The younger Robertson played hockey and served on his church's golf committee.
A celebration of Robertson's life will be held by his parents: |
