Oh my! Been a long time! My husband, Roland Viets was a friend of Ed Coffin. Your Dad pre-deceased Roland by a year on 10/25/2009. We can never forget our loved ones. The anniverseries open those wounds again, sadly! We were neighbors as well. Dekalb Av. ran into 38th St. My condolences to all of you!
