Facebook Group Honors Nyack’s 9/11 Hero, “The Man in the Red Bandana”

September 12, 2021 by Jeff Lewis

One of the many 9-11 stories that echoes through Rockland is that of Nyack resident, 24 year-old Welles Crowther. The Nyack High School graduate is often referred to as “The Man in the Red Bandana,” an equities trader who worked in the South Tower and rescued at least 18 people that day, aided in part by the red bandana that he always carried with him. He was killed when the tower collapsed.Barbara Noyes is a member of a Facebook Group dedicated to him, and she urges others to join the group and share their photos of themselves wearing red bandanas…

Crowther was a volunteer firefighter, with his father, in Nyack’s Empire Hook & Ladder Co., No. 1. To join the Facebook group click here.
