Summary:Both Mr. [FREDERICK COX] and Davin Peterson, who dined with Ms. Peterson on Sept. 8, worked on the 104th floor at the World Trade Center -- Mr. Peterson in the north tower, Mr. Cox in the south tower. After the first plane hit the trade center on Sept. 11, Mr. [MICHAEL A. TRINIDAD], 33, who was working in telecommunications accounting for Cantor Fitzgerald, called Ms. [Monique Ferrer] to say goodbye. '' 'What goodbye?' I asked him. 'Are you going anywhere?' '' Ms. Ferrer recalled asking him, unaware of the disaster. Mr. Starita, 35, also chewed on coffee straws, mostly when he got nervous about a deal at his job as a government bond trader at Cantor Fitzgerald. ''When he got a little nervous he put the straws in his mouth and he would start wiping his hands with napkins,'' said Eddie De Castro, Mr. Starita's longtime friend and former trading partner. ''Those were his two things.''
