Ben, It is a great idea!  Very imaginative and a great tribute. 

I wondered how you were thinking of using 40 bricks.  I am only familiar with one brick per person or family like our little rural area war memorial where we bought one brick each to commemorate my dad's and uncle's service.  I made a poor engineer; I don't think outside the box.  Probably why they pushed me out with early retirement!  

Mark, I doubt the poor engineer bit. It's always about cost of manpower. Give me the oldies but goldies any day. Can't replace experience ever.

I sincerely hope that the design Ben has come up with can be done to the letter and we get an October York dedication. I may have never had been introduced or had a proper conversation with him(other then Hi Marty), but following his posts, and talking to some that were very close to him, you got to know him to a degree. I still have to find the one OGR article that I read a bit back he wrote, as I read the whole thing one night before heading to bed(this was before I heard about what he was going through). It's somewhere in the stack by the bed that I keep close at hand. I'll have to sort that out soon.
