You tried to be as healthy as you could be and you should really be here right now. I read my brother Eric's entry and it made me smile because that is what I think of as well. I too remember Sunday Sunday Sunday New England Dragway and all the fun we had there. I remember lots of great 'road trips' with picnics at rest stops on picnic tables with our packaged bologna and packaged cheese, chips and cans of soda...fun food for us with overnights in hotels another cool thing to do as a kid ! Fun rolling down the sand dunes, DeCordova Museum with outside art sculptures, go karts yeah and of course my first rock concert ...Cheap Trick with UFO as the backup band...I was 9 or 10 years old and it was fantastic . I've been hooked ever since. Thank you for the Chess lessons thanks for teaching me. Thank you very much for the music...a very important part of my life especially my teenage life...Led Zeppelin, Aerosmith, The Eagles and of course Fleetwood Mac. You really loved the music and I too have followed. Thanks for my first guitar. You really did give me many firsts and I will always remember those special times. Thank you.
Love, Robyn

My deepest sympathies to the Rodwell family. I will remember Artie in my prayers tonight. I will always remember the good times we had at Polaroid. Knew Artie for many years, he was a man amongst men. Rest in Peace, Artie. Arthur Haskell, Lowell, MA

Summers and "family days" @ Polaroid;
Weekend getaways to the White Mountains and Indian Head;
The day you bought his first house in Lowell;
Tuesday night Drum Lessons and my allowance on Friday, $5.00 dollars(all of which was spent on video games);
Mowing the yard while you read the Sunday "funnies";
playing an occasional game of badminton and teaching me chess;
Thursday nights and "night classes" at U/Mass-Lowell;
"Sunday, Sunday, Sunday..." @ New England Dragway and watching the "American Dream", a futuristic jet car, and having my “first beer“;
The Pinball machine in the basement; my first speedometer my for bike; and helping me with my first paper route. This is how I will remember you…
Adapted.
your first child,
Eric

In My Pocket
I have memories in my pocket.
They rattle among the change.
My memories of you are treasures I carry wherever I go.
They are stored in bits and pieces, parts of a beautiful whole
They give me comfort when I think I am alone.
Yes, I have memories in my pocket, like so much other stuff I keep there.
But of all the treasures I have, it’s the memories of you that are the most precious.
