As we approach the 25th anniversary of September 11, 2001, this week we’ll be remembering members of the Oratory Prep community whose lives were lost that day and sharing a little about who they were. Today, we remember Wayne Hobson ’82. Wayne was known for his outgoing personality, quick sense of humor and seemingly endless energy. He built a career on Wall Street while also pursuing his dream of opening Hobson’s Choice, an English-style pub in Hoboken where he could bring people together. At the time, Wayne was working for Cantor Fitzgerald in the World Trade Center. We honor his memory today and always.
