Victims of Flight 3407
Beverly Eckert, 50, was widowed in the Sept. 11 attacks. After her husband died in the World Trade Center, she turned her grief into powerful advocacy. She helped force a reluctant Bush White House to create the 9/11 commission to investigate the attacks, and then helped push Congress to pass sweeping reforms of Americas secret intelligence agencies.
