MAXWELL was named for ROBERT J. MAXWELL, who paid the ultimate price in the attack on America September 11, 2001. Robert J. Maxwell, 53, Manassas, Virginia, who for 29 years was a civilian employed as a budget analyst by the United States Army, lost his life on September 11, 2001 while working at the Pentagon. Originally from Texas, Mr. Maxwell enjoyed doing crossword puzzles, cooking, music of Janis Joplin & Joe Cocker, and had a dry sense of humor. A 1968 graduate of the University of Texas at Arlington, Mr. Maxwell was a charter member of the Delta Iota fraternity. He is survived by his wife, Karen; son, Tanner; and father, Ernest. We salute Mr. Maxwell, a hero, and name this handsome kitten in his honor.
