Therese & Family: Sincere sympathies at your loss. He is now at peace and no more pain. May the happy memories give you strength at this time. Fondest memories for me was when Robert, Gilman and family would visit our family (Octave's)in St.Agathe, Maine. Eventually, guitars and fiddle would come out of hiding and a good old house party of music and sometimes dancing would happen. God Bless!
Dad and Lolita. Easter week 2013.
