I will always remember Nofrio as one of the nicest neighbors I ever had. He and his family were neighbors when I lived right next door at #42, for 21 years many years ago. I will always cherish those wonderful times when we swam in his pool at midnight, and for one summer I remember Bobby & Lenni with all those clams they caught and we had clam fritters every night of the week. Norfrio was one of the most wonderful persons that I have had the pleasure to know. I no longer live on LI but have driven by many many times over the years on my trips back to LI. May his two son's carry on their lives knowing that there father had a special place in many peoples hearts. Rest in peace Nofrio, knowing you were loved by many, and not forgotten.
