Photo 7420
I just got back from the San Diego show in the gaslamp district. I'm from New York, Rockaway Beach actually, and I have lived in San Diego for over 10 years. My brother is on the job with the FDNY and he was off duty on the 11. He went in after hearing about it on the news and from a friend. He lost a lot of his brothers from Ladder 101, his house. I looked at picture 7420 and there he was in the center saluting one of his fallen brothers. He has what appears to be a yellow light centered on him in the photo. It really blew me away that out of all of the pictures that were on display I should go into a gallery 3000 miles from New York and see my brother. What a trip. Thank you for putting the show together as I felt really connected there. Peace Ilena Fitzpatrick
