Today, we remember Sigrid Wiswe, who would have celebrated her 66th birthday on October 29, 2025.
Born in Germany, Sigrid immigrated to the United States at the age of 14 and eventually became a beloved resident of Manhattan’s Chelsea neighborhood. Sadly, she was among the victims of the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks, working on the 94th floor of the North Tower as a manager for American Express, handling the Marsh & McLennan account.
At the time of her passing, Sigrid was 41 years old.
