I enjoyed caring for John the times I did through Interim. He was always an understanding man with a great big heart. Robert and Bobby please always remember your father loved you dearly. And John I will see you on the other side of those pearly gates.

John and I were best friends growing up. We stuck together through thick and thin. Even though we haven't kept in touch over the years, I will always remember all the fun we had living on Portland Ave. See ya in heaven my friend.

Bobby and Robert, I'm sorry for your loss. Your Dad was a kind person. He is was good friends with Dad (Big Erv) they loved to pick on one another and bet the ball games. I'm sure that is what the 2 of them are doing now in
Heaven betting on the games and picking on each other. I'm glad I got to know your Dad. I'll miss him.

God Bless

May all your memories remind you of what a wonderful father your dad was during this difficult time. He will always have a special place in my heart.

Always think about his favorite saying,

"Remember me with smiles and laughter,
For that's the way I'll remember you all.
If you can only remember me with tears,
Then don't remember me at all.

May 10, 2010

Bobby, Robert and Family: Sorry about your Dad. I know it's been rough the last few months on all of you, but now he has no more pain or suffering. Take care and we're thinking of you.
