Dear Dr. Brandon,
So many years have passed since the world lost you to the Universe.
I'll never forget the smile on your face when I found an old version of "Kid Millions" - you were the wisest and most dedicated person on the planet.
Rest Easy Dr. B.
You made such a huge difference in my life. I love you for the kind person you were.
