BEFORE Mr. Reynolds uses these images in his DVD and live talks. Sean Marsee, a promising high school track star who started using chewing tobacco in his mid teens. Sean became addicted and died of mouth and jaw cancer at 19.
|
AFTER Mr. Reynolds shows these heartwrenching before-and-after photos of Sean Marsee, who lived in Oklahoma in the 1970's. This part of the video makes a very compelling case, especially to younger children, to remain tobaccofree. Noone will remain unmoved after hearing this sad story.

R.J.REYNOLDS, who founded the tobacco company in 1875,
began manufacturing Camel cigarettes in 1913. He died in 1918, of
cancer of the pancreas, after a lifetime of chewing tobacco -- ironically,
the same product which established his fortune, and earlier, his
father's, in the tobacco business. Studies have linked cancer of
the pancreas to chewing tobacco. He married at age 53, and died at
age 67, when his eldet son, RJ Reynolds, Jr., was just 12. As a result,
R.J. Jr. would never spend much time working in the tobacco business,
nor would any of R.J. Jr.'s 6 sons.

Mr. Reynolds uses this image in his DVD and live talks to youth. BEFORE: Patrick's father, R.J. Reynolds, Jr.
in 1946, in good health at age 40. A Lieutenant-Commander in the
Navy in WWII, he was navigator for a task force in the Pacific. He

Patrick's mother, MARIANNE O'BRIEN REYNOLDS,
in 1946, age 30, newly married to R.J. REYNOLDS, JR.
In order to marry her, he paid $9 million to divorce his first wife.
A former starlet under contract to Warner Brothers, Marianne began
smoking around this time,
because she thought it would
please her husband. However, he was very unhapy about her taking up
the habit, even though he smoked himself. Later she would suffer
from angina and have two heart attacks. MArianne died in Miami
in 1985 of a stomach
aneurism.
