We miss you, but you’re still with us. . “He said I pray I’ve done my work so that when that when I’ve gone from here, and all the turmoil, through the wreckage and rumble and through whatever, when someone finds themselves digging through the ruins. He said, I pray that somewhere in that wreckage, they’ll find me. Somewhere in that wreckage. That they can use something that I left behind. And if I’ve done that, then I’ve accomplished something in life.” David Baldwin, JB’s brother reflecting on his life, from the film “The Price of the Ticket”, 1990 .
