My greetings and sympathies to all of you. Ed McCabe forwarded this notice and when I saw it, there was a flood of memories of our early adolescence together, many of them involving snow and Jeremy's Inn with my dad. I value the friendship we shared at that time. I will pass this along to my Mom, Jim and Jon. My heart will be with you all on Saturday.

Hi John:
We were classmates from Melrose Highschool, Class of 1960.
Every day I look over the death notices from Boston.com. This is where I read about your loss of your mother.
