CLOUD was named for GEOFFREY CLOUD, who paid the ultimate price in the attack on America September 11, 2001. Geoffrey W. Cloud, 36, an attorney with Cantor Fitzgerald, lived in Stamford, Connecticut. He was trapped on the 104th floor of Tower 1 of the World Trade Center. Mr. Cloud is survived by his wife, Mio; two young children, Geoffrey & Jaclyn; parents; and siblings. We salute Mr. Cloud, a hero, and name this beautiful dog in his honor.
