Lolita Jackson was at her 72nd-floor desk in the World Trade Center, feeling like she worked at the top of the world, when a bomb exploded there on February 26, 1993. The attack killed six people and injured more than 1,000. The bombing was a harbinger of terror that impacted the 9/11 attacks a few years later. The 1993 attack was largely forgotten after 9/11, but it is still felt by the victims' relatives and survivors. In light of the 30th Anniversary of 9/11, the victims' relatives and survivors gathered at the trade center Sunday to remember the victims of the earlier attack. The anniversary was also marked at a Mass at a nearby church and a panel discussion at the 9/11 Memorial Museum.
