    Comments: Hello Brothers. My son John just arrived in Fargo this morning. He is playing baseball against the minor league team there tonight. It is nice to know the brotherhood is nearby. Thank you for having a 9/11 tribute on your website. I am one of the few people who were in the WTC when it collapsed, and lived through it. I am currently a Deputy Chief in the 7th Division in the Bronx. Be safe Brothers. Never forget!

    Comments: Thanks to all of you for the beautiful flowers and gift card to Texas RoadHouse. They were totally unexpected and a very thoughtful thing for you to do. I really like making the trips to all of the stations. When I've had a long day at work, it always lifts my spirits to know that I will get to see you guys (and girl). I haven't seen all of you yet and am looking forward to when I will meet everyone....hopefully not at a fire though. You all do a fabulous job and if I can bring you a little pizza and a couple of calzones every now and then to snack on, then life is good. Thanks again. Sue (from MicroSoft)

    Comments: With out a doubt Dan was one of the nicest people on the earth. We had the pleasure of knowing Dan and Sandy and all four kids when we lived in Moorhead. Dan was always quick with a smile and helped with everything. I remember when My father was sick and My husband had moved ahead of the family to set up our new house here in Savannah- Dan helped with all of the heavy stuff- moving furniture, snow shoveling anything at all. Dan and Sandy came to visit us in Savannah for St Patricks Day - What a great time. Gene and I are shocked and very sad that Dan has passed and will always remember him with a smile and a special place in our hearts. Sandy, We love you! Gene and Leigh Mesco Savannah Georgia

    Comments: Sorry to hear about Dan. I’ll bet you’ve had about enough of people telling you how strong you are and how great you’re doing during this awful, difficult time in your life. Maybe you’d rather hear someone say how much this sucks, how outrageous and unfair it is. Maybe you’d rather hear someone tell you that you don’t have to be strong all the time. Or that it’s definitely okay to curse fate and throw a tantrum or two. So here I am to tell you all that stuff and more, to let you know where I stand, which is right in your corner. There’s no right way or wrong way at a time like this. However you work through this thing is immaterial to me. All I care about is that you ask for what you need, lean on those who love you, and try to trust me when I say that you’ll come out the other side. Jeannie Hund
