HELEN
CROSSIN-KITTLE: Just Starting a Family
Helen Crossin-Kittle was the one to ask her future
husband out on their first date. A good thing too, says
Kevin Kittle, a high school custodian, because if she had
waited for him to ask, he says, he would "still be
single." The Kittles lived in Larchmont and their love
story was a knew-each-other-from- childhood kind of
thing. Only, as Mr. Kittle notes, he was "just dumb" --
didn't pick up on Helen's feelings until that first date,
when she told him she was looking for a nice guy and had
always thought he was a nice guy. They married April 7,
honeymooned in St. Lucia, and did not want to wait to
start a family. Ms. Kittle, 34, a computer specialist who
worked on the 103rd floor of 1 World Trade Center, was
five months pregnant at the time of the attack. She went
for amniocentesis nine days ago and expected the results
of the test on Monday. Mr. Kittle and the couple's
families have not decided whether they want to be told
whether she was expecting a boy or a girl.
