After almost a year, Jennifer Scintu-Waetzmann and her husband were overdue for a honeymoon.
The
marriage was recent enough that they still had photos from the wedding
as their Facebook profile pictures. Ms. Scintu-Waetzmann, 29, crouched
in her dress in her photo. Her husband, Lars Waetzmann, 30, posted a
photo holding his bride’s hand.
“Love of my life,” she wrote in a Facebook photo of the couple kissing next to a lake.
The newlyweds from Aachen, Germany, had decided to spend their first anniversary in New York City.
Germany’s
top security official, Thomas de Maizière, said Friday that a woman
from Aachen was among those killed in Tuesday’s attacks.
“My
thoughts are with the young woman’s relatives, as well as the relatives
of the many who were injured or killed on March 22,” he said.
Later on Friday, the Italian Embassy in Brussels released Ms. Scintu-Waetzmann’s name, indicating that she had roots in Italy.
Ms. Scintu-Waetzmann’s uncle, Claudio Scintu, told Bild, a German newspaper, that Mr. Waetzmann, 30, was alive but in a coma.
Ms.
Scintu-Waetzmann was a customer service coordinator at Stedman GmbH, a
clothing company, according to a LinkedIn profile. She was also a coach
for a local youth handball club, according to The Associated Press.
