@michelleobamam I think it was "I will do enough good to make it up there" because he knew that she was in heaven.

@max397 Dude, this video is about a lost lover, not your "inside job" hypothesis. Please, shut it and get lost.

I have the same birthday as Karen. Next week, on our birthday, I won't be able to forget her.

@clyd0617 You're Richie?! Wow. I never thought someone like you would make an account.

Well, my words are;

1. Sorry about Karen. She didn't deserve to die in a tragic moment.

2. You're last words in the video are beautiful.

3. I hope you are carrying on with your life, thinking about Karen, and the good moments you had with her. Best if you think good instead of the bad.

God Bless You.

@serycoul Sery, in America, we don't forget and carry on, we remember and stay with it.

Sure, your right its been 10 years. How do you think everyone in America feels today? It haunted the nation, it haunted the world. And your right; the 2,800 victims are in heaven, watching their loved ones, family, and friends remembering them. God Bless You, America, and the people. :)

[Rotneybot]

Almost cried.

I feel bad for these people that lost their loved ones, or friends, or family.

May god be with them all.
