Christina Morace was not only an an amazing expert in helping us navigate thru the required paperwork for the VCF 9/11 Fund claim, she was also so wonderful in helping us get through the emotional toll of this process. She gave us clarity and encouragement for 3 years now. She was truly helpful and very very kind. We ( including my sister who has passed) feel so fortunate to have Tina "on the case", as expert and friend. We are grateful to Tina and the services of Parker Waichman. Thank you so so much. With much gratitude Sharon Carr (deceased) Karen Carr (sister of deceased) Yvette Christofilis (sister-in-law of deceased)
