Dear Tim,Kathy & Sheila I was greatful for your call about your Dads passing. I loved them both dearly and have nothing but fond memories of dinner in the house in Belmont, then at the Apt in Watertown. Words are just not adaquate enough to express how wonderful your mom and dad were and how blessed I was to have them as friends. Sorry I haven't responded sooner but I have been a little under the weather lately and I'm just getting back into the swing of things. I promise to get a note off to you soon. Love and Peace, Larry Bellantoni

Sheila, Kathy and Timmy,
I'm so sorry to hear of your Dad's passing. So many memories in the neighborhood and the CYO shows...sometimes it seems like yesterday. Your parents were 2 of the kindest people in this world and your Dad's sense of humor always made me laugh. I know now he is with Chris and your Mom and all 3 will always watch over you and your children. God Bless
Love,

Dear Grace Children,
I live at 36 Cushing Ave, just down and across the street. Both of your parents were two of the most thoughtful, giving and kind people I have ever known. I have 4 children and many grandchildren now, but when my own children were young, your parents always made a point (in both thought and deed) to make sure all of us were doing well. Also, Chris was our paperboy for many years, and he too had embodied their loving spirit. It is with deep sadness that I acknowledge your Dad's passing, as well as your Mom's - I had not been aware of that last year. Your parents have gifted you with the best we humans have to offer - it is such a blessing that you had them in your lives for so long.
With my sincerest condolences,

Mr. Grace,
Sir, I would just like to say thank you for your service and sacrifice for our Country when you served in the U.S. Army during WW II and for being a member of the Greatest Generation. And to your family and loved ones, I wish to extend my deepest sympathy.

To the Grace Family: My deepest sympathy on the passing of a wonderful man. I remember him from growing up and would see him and Mrs. Grace periodically when they were in St. Pat's church in Watertown. My thoughts and prayers are with you all.
