Michael Hingson and Roselle
Michael Hingson has been Blind
since Birth.
He worked as a Regional Sales Manager
and Head of Operations for Quantum/ATL, a Data-Protection Agency, on the 78th
floor of the North Tower at the World Trade Center with his Service Dog,
Roselle.
On September 11, 2001 Michael was
setting up the Conference Room for their Breakfast Meeting and Roselle took her
position near the door to great People.
Moments later Flight 11 crashed
into the North Tower swaying it back and forth.
Michael and Roselle walked down
78 flights of stairs to safety.
Roselle passed away on June 26,
2011 with Michael and his Wife, Karen, by her side.
They subsequently formed
Roselle’s Dream Foundation in her honor; the Nonprofit Charity educates People
on Blindness and assists Blind Children and Adults in obtaining technology to
help them navigate the world around them.
