Hi All,
I just want you to know how sorry I am about Uncle Andy passing. I loved Uncle Andy. I have very, very fond memories of him. I remember the Crab House and eating clams with vinegar. To this day, people think I'm wierd when I ask for vinegar on my fresh clams on the half shell.
I remember Uncle Andy always would give me a ride on his tractor. Oh,that was such a big deal to me.
I remember popcorn balls on your Christmas Tree at holiday time.
I remember your house in Rhode Island and going crabbing on the dock at your house, with a big net.
I also remember the story of Uncle Andy tying a string to my Dad's toe on ship because he would sleep walk.
I have many fond memories of Uncle Andy and I'm very sorry I could not attend his services. Had I been home I definately would have been there.
One last thing..................
My most VIVID memory of Uncle Andy was when he would PINCH my cheek,until I was in pain, almost on purpose, so never to forget him.
Well, I will never forget him!!! He was a GREAT guy!
Love To All,
Jacki Blackmore xoxo
