When I saw the picture in the paper a flood of memories came of me being a little girl. I remember his smile and laughter. His teasing us endlessly!! Him buying Raquel KFC while the rest of us ate Portugese Casserole loaded with peppers and onions, Yuck!! I remember him and Uncle Teddy filling up their race cars with us and racing from the family picnic. I remember the sound of his motorcycle pulling up to Atlantic Ave. I have many fond memories. He will be missed. May God make his passing easy on his family and be a reminder to us all that we will all meet with our Lord. My love and condolences.
