I have all of the newspaper articles with accompanying photos including one photo before the building collapsed with a large colulm of smoke. I also have the memorial service handout for Todd. I don’t have one for Mark. I can scan them in and send them to you if needed.
– James Mc GuireTo Todd’s family: Sorry it took so long for someone to recognize Todd’s sacrifice. As a co-worker I will never forget.
