Kevin Cosgrove

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Kevin M. Cosgrove (January 6, 1955 – September 11, 2001) of West Islip, New York, was a victim of the September 11, 2001 attacks. Cosgrove was trapped in an office in the northwest corner on the 105th floor of the North Tower; trapped along with Cosgrove were coworker Doug Cherry and John Ostaru.

After making several phone calls to relatives, Cosgrove made a frantic 911 call for help. While still on the line at 9:59 a.m., the building started to collapse, and Cosgrove shouted his last recorded words: "Oh God! Oh..." as the phone line went dead.[1]

Cosgrove was a claims vice president of Aon Corporation. He was 46 years old. His body was found within a week of the attacks, and he was buried on September 22 in St. Patrick's Cemetery in Huntington, New York.

The 911 recording of his last words was played at the trial of Zacarias Moussaoui.
