"Everybody is your brother," said MacPhee."You hear that saying, 'we're all brothers in this,' but it's actually true. It's not just something that's said; it's something that is.""We have such a fine group here that anytime we have a call that might be a little bit iffy, or somebody upset, we're getting together right away, and we're talking.
