Betsy Ross Bridge Tragedy

One of the worst things to do to someone is to forget them, so I'm posting this blog entry here in the virtual world so that we do not forget my neighbor Tommy Wynn, who tragically died today after falling from the Betsy Ross Bridge.

It would be a few days before his body was recovered.

My mother and I attended his wake on Lehigh Avenue in Port Richmond---it was very sad.
