His family had hoped his remains<BR>would be identified, but his mother, Dee Ragusa, said Sunday that they<BR>decided they<BR>had waited long enough.<BR>``We always knew in our hearts when it would be the right time, when we<BR>&nbsp;would say, 'enough,''' she said.<BR>Of the 2,792 people who died in the Sept. 11, 2001, attack on the World<BR>&nbsp;Trade Center, the medical examiner has identified remains of just over<BR>half.<BR>&nbsp;Scientists expect to exhaust all available DNA technology in the attempt<BR>to identify the rest as early as next year, although unidentified remains<BR>will be<BR>stored in case new methods are developed.<BR><BR>&nbsp;Many families held memorial services before any remains were identified,<BR>but Ragusa's family delayed an official ceremony. His parents decided to<BR>hold<BR>&nbsp;a funeral after the July wedding of their younger son.<BR><BR>&nbsp;``We got him happily married, and now it was time to take care of<BR>&nbsp;Michael,'' Dee Ragusa said.<BR><BR>&nbsp;Instead of the firefighter's remains, his family will bury a vial of blood<BR>&nbsp;he had donated to a bone marrow center. The vial will be interred at a<BR>&nbsp;cemetery on Staten Island after the funeral Sept. 8.<BR><BR>&nbsp;Dee Ragusa said that if she could not have her son's intact body to bury,<BR>&nbsp;she was glad to have the vial of blood. ``I'd much rather have a bottle of<BR>&nbsp;blood that flowed through him while he was alive than parts of his body,''<BR>she said.<BR>&nbsp;09/01/03 09:55 EDT<BR></FONT></STRONG></DIV> <DIV align=center><STRONG><FONT color=#ff0000><IMG src="housemouse/housemouse_american flag5.gif" alt="" width="364" height="318" hspace=0 border=0 align=baseline></FONT></STRONG></DIV> <DIV align=center><STRONG><FONT color=#ff0000><FONT face=Georgia size=5>As we remember</FONT></FONT></STRONG></DIV> <DIV align=center><STRONG><FONT color=#ff0000><FONT face=Georgia size=5></FONT></FONT></STRONG>&nbsp;</DIV> <DIV align=center><STRONG><FONT color=#ff0000><EM><FONT face=Georgia size=6>Spotlight Sites</FONT></EM></FONT></STRONG></DIV> <DIV align=center><STRONG><EM><FONT face=Georgia color=#ff0000></FONT></EM></STRONG>&nbsp;</DIV> <DIV align=center><STRONG><FONT color=#ff0000><EM><FONT face=Georgia size=4>******** Today I have included several sites.
