    thanks so much for letting me know that the video touched you like it did:) My dad Glenn worked at BCL from '73-'82, and I went to kopano from '73-'80. My name is Cameron Taylor and I lived at 179 notwane drive. My brothers name was Martin. We may have known eachother? I do plan on going back again. It was a year ago today that I was there, hopefully I'll be able to go back there in about six months.
