DARLING was named for ELIZABETH ANN DARLING, who paid the ultimate price in the attack on America September 11, 2001. Elizabeth Ann Darling, age 28, Newark, New Jersey, was employed as a business analyst with Marsh & McLennan and worked on the 97th floor of Tower One of the World Trade Center. A 1996 graduate of the University of Albany, Ms. Darling was the daughter of a minister. Ms. Darling is survived by her two-year-old son, Michael. We salute Ms. Darling, a hero, and name this lovely kitty in her honor.
