Wish You Were Here

 

I recently posted that Aug. 29 should have been our friend David Charlebois's 64th birthday, had he not been the first officer on American Airlines Flight 77 on 9/11.

Twenty-five years seems hard to believe, until you think about all the ways the world has changed in that time. The one thing that remains consistent, however, is this: We miss him.  

🙏
