Allison Crowther never expected Jimmy Dunne would negotiate with those she blames for her son’s death.
Though an early-morning chill delayed his tee time, Jimmy Dunne had high hopes for his golf outing on Tuesday,. A co-founder of the financial firm Sandler O’Neill & Partners, he was maniacal about golf and had trekked to Westchester with the goal of qualifying for the U.S. Mid-Amateur Championship. He never finished. Sometime after 9 a.m., a course attendant approached Dunne somewhere around the sixth hole and told him a plane had hit the World Trade Center, where his firm was headquartered.
at the 9/11 Memorial & Museum dedication ceremony, the FDNY made him an honorary member, and a charitable trust was established in his name. “I was proud, I was proud of him, I was proud of his family,” Dunne would later say of Welles. “We had a methodology to get really good people. And Welles was a class-A, example No. 1 of that.”Photo: Courtesy Alison Crowther
Jimmy Dunne wasn’t supposed to golf on 9/11. He’d planned to try to qualify on a course in Greenwich on Monday, September 10, but Dunne’s co-founder and best friend since childhood, Chris Quackenbush, had encouraged him to play Bedford Golf & Tennis Club instead, thinking Dunne had a better chance of shooting below par on the Westchester course to qualify for the U.S. Mid-Amateur Championship.
. The Saudi government has denied any involvement, and a 2005 report from the FBI and CIA concluded neither Riyadh nor the royal family “knowingly provided support” for the hijackers. There are irrefutable connections, though: 15 of the 19 hijackers were Saudi and Osama bin Laden was a member of one of the kingdom’s richest families, though he was stripped of citizenship years earlier.
