Jan and John Vigiano received the email invite Tuesday and admitted that they nearly deleted it, thinking it was spam. The private invitation complete with the White House seal informed the couple about President Obama's visit to the World Trade Center site just days after news broke about Osama bin Laden's death.
What rubbed the Vigiano's the wrong way was not what the email said, but how it was addressed.
[n]"It says 'Dear 9-11 family member,' - no names" " John Vigiano said, reading the invite aloud to PIX 11 cameras. "I don't know if its disrespectful, but it doesn't work for me."
The Vigianos lost both their sons on September 11, 2001. John Vigiano Jr. was 36, and a FDNY firefighter, while their youngest Joe Vigiano was an emergency services detective with the NYPD.
The article goes on to say it was a technological glitch an time constraints. Positive note the WH called with an apology after the Vigiano's were on the news.
They also showed what a class act these parents are. They said apology accepted he is our President.
