BEATINI was named for PAUL F. BEATINI, who paid the ultimate price in the attack on America September 11, 2001. Mr. Beatini, age 40, Park Ridge, New Jersey, was employed as Operations Vice President by FM Global. Mr. Beatini was a 1986 graduate of New Jersey Science & Technology University. Since he had a meeting with Aon the morning of September 11, where he lost his life on the 102nd floor of the South Tower of the World Trade Center, he told his youngest daughter that really wasn't her first day of school because he would never miss the first day of school, that he would take her on the real first day, Thursday. On Thursday, his daughter didn't forget. Mr. Beatini was a barrel of laughs for his daughters. Mr. Beatini is survived by his wife, Susan, and daughters Julia and Daria. Pet Harbor salutes Mr. Beatini, a hero, and names this beautiful dog in his honor.
