David DiMeglio was a child of his digital generation. He loved computers, and was this close to turning that love into a career. "He was just coming into himself," said his father, John.
After working as an apprentice electrician, Mr. DiMeglio, 22, recently finished computer school and was starting a business in computer services — helping people upgrade hard drives and the like (the stuff the young somehow seem best at).
He was so good at it that his father was convinced that "the business would have taken off."
If it had, it would have owed a lot to this young man's outgoing personality.
"He loved to help people," his father said. Mr. DiMeglio's friends were numerous, but he did not reserve his charms for his peers.
His 2-year-old nephew got so excited when he saw Uncle David that he could not stand still.
And Mr. DiMeglio was no one-note computer nerd. He wrote and sang rap songs and loved to draw.
He loved motorcycles, even dismantling one in the garage. And he was an avid wrestling fan.
On Sept. 11, Mr. DiMeglio, who lived with his father near Boston, headed west on American Airlines Flight 11 to help his mother move.
