Remembering a loving brother&nbsp; 
 Andrew Zucker was my baby brother. Only 27 years old when he was killed. He died in the tower two and worked for Harris Beach. He saved at least 7 people in his office. These people swear that because of him they are alive. He didn't survive, because he went back into his office to try to save a few more. &nbsp;I miss him everyday.
