More Information
Summary:Mr. Reyes, 37, was close to his three daughters, who split their time between his house in Richmond Hill, Queens, and their mother's in Brooklyn. Over the summer, [Max Reyes] stopped by [Eddie]'s, just before Eddie started a new job at Rohde & Liesenfeld in the World Trade Center, and there were Eddie and his 13-year-old, Tiffany, dressed in matching Wrestlemania T-shirts. [JUDE SAFI] used to say he wished he had been born in the 1950's. He loved Elvis and Frank Sinatra and vintage clothing. He bought a 1957 Chevrolet pickup a few years ago and restored it, painting it silver. A few weeks before the World Trade Center was attacked he attended a concert at Madison Square Garden where Elvis's old band played, in front of film clips of the King shimmying and gyrating. The kitchen in the house of [SEAN ROONEY] and his wife, Beverly Eckert, in Stamford, Conn., reminds her of him for several reasons. First, Mr. Rooney loved to cook. Even more, he loved to have his friends and family, and their conversation and laughter, in the kitchen with him when he did.
