Although I'm very sad that my cousin Alvie has passed, I know in my heart that Sug made a long distance call to have her dance partner back in her arms again. A fun couple in life, reunited after. I'll always remember your jokes, good heart and hair on mom's side table. Best practical joke on a kid ever. ;)
