- Bronx-born Robert Gschaar lived in Spring Valley, New York, with his wife, Myrta. During their 11-year marriage, the two each carried a $2 bill—a reminder from Robert that they were two of a kind. Robert helped raise Myrta’s four daughters. In July 2001, Robert had joined Aon Corporation as an insurance underwriter. On September 11, he was at work on the South Tower’s 92nd floor. Robert was 55 years old.
