Robert, I saw Kenneth's obituary in today's Journal News. Saddened to read of his passing. I still have memories of the Post Road School days, and WPHS, too.I can still picture the two of you and your parents, and Quimby Avenue., Not sure if I can attend the visitation times. You and your family are in my thoughts and prayers. Teddy Lee,153 Fisher Avenue, White Plains, NY 10606-2302
