Dear Diane & family, I was deeply saddened to read of your fathers passing. I go to Cape Cod to visit my sisters & everytime I go over the bridge I think of being in the back of your dads blue station wagon going to sandwich for vacation (1969-71) They are wonderful memories, your dad was a nice man. My sincere sympathy to you & your family.
