Joanne Ahladiotis never did anything halfway. She dressed impeccably and had her nails done once a week. She entertained regularly, making all the food herself. She took great pride in her small apartment in Forest Hills, Queens. "At Christmas," said her sister, Effie Salloum, "she would decorate her apartment like it was Macy's windows."
Fluent in Greek, Ms. Ahladiotis, 27, traveled to Greece every two years to visit her grandmother, who lives in Crete, and returned home laden with gifts of icons, jewelry, books and cookies. In fact, Ms. Ahladiotis could scarcely go anywhere without buying presents for her family and friends. "If she was out shopping and she found something she liked but they didn't have it in her size, she would buy it for me," her sister said.
The week before she died, Ms. Ahladiotis, who worked for the eSpeed division of Cantor Fitzgerald, had to travel to Las Vegas on business. She invited her parents to accompany her. "It was the most beautiful week of my life," said her mother, Eleni. "She was a very loving person."

Dear Joanne Ahladiotis
Dear Joanne Ahladiotis
I can't begin to imagine what you were doing or how you felt the moment the plane crashed into the first World Trade Center building. And, unfortunately, you were not the only victim in this horrid act of terrorism.
As a person I honestly can t be sure who you were, but I do know you didn't deserve to die how you did and when--especially not at age 27.
Now I know I was only a little girl when this happened, too young to completely understand quite what occurred at the time but having watched the old news reports, seeing what really happened in those moments when the towers fell and the Pentagon was engulfed in flames, really got me thinking how lucky I am to not have had any family or friends there at the time.
My sympathy goes out to your friends and family, and I write this to you so you know that your memory will not be forgotten :")

Dear loving family of Joanne
My name is kendra from stafford high school. We were watching videos of what happened the day 9/11 occurred, like tragedy, death, fire, even smoke. I now know what really happened that day but before i didn't know much about 9/11 because I was so very young when that went on but now after i saw pictures and videos of what happened to the Twin Towers and the Pentagon, and what people had to go through that day, trying to get their families to safety and trying to get themselves to safety.
Now I know what happened that day like families broken and destroyed, and many people lost their jobs. I am typing this letter to you to give my sympathy to you and your family. I am glad I was able to do this.
Sincerely
Kendra from Mr. Holland's 1st block class

Dear family of Joanne,
My name is Katelynn Morris, I am a senior at Paola High School. I am doing a project on the people who lost their lives in 9/11 and we were asked to pick someone to focus on. I picked Joanne. I want to send my condolences to you. Joanne seemed like a very lovely woman.

Gone but never forgotten.
"Dear Joanne, I never met you, but I can truly see how brilliant you were and how much your friends and family loved you. An incredible person with so much potential and an immense strength. What happened that day is so unfortunate, and I hope all your family and friends have found peace even after your departure. I can assure you that you will never be forgotten; you were a very valuable person, and I sincerely hope your soul is at peace." 💐🕊️
