Cari Cougini,
When I met Frank and Mary for the first time in 1974 they welcomed me into their home and hearts. They made my 'American Christmas' a very happy one.Then many years later they welcomed my husband, whom they had never met and Frank gave him his car to drive across the state! Such generosity is rare. Subsequently our two boys invaded the Winter Park apartment and were fed and pampered by their American cougini. I shall never forget his beautiful smile and great sense of humour. He always referred to me as 'Cougina' and I loved that he did. I am glad that my last memories of him are at the wedding last year, so proud of his loving family around him. My love to you all.
