Dear Auntie Mary:
Hey, I remember a time when I was a little girl and I was over on Brow Street visiting you with my mom. I recall Frankie's dog "Butch" hanging around in the driveway while Uncle Fornzie, Uncle Tony and Uncle Brucie were talking. "Butch" decided to go over to Uncle Fornzie, lift his leg and proceeded to 'tinkle'...Uncle Brucie was the first one to notice and laughed out loud.........(Uncle Fornzie wasn't laughing.......)....Just thought I would share that with all of you. I always appreciated his sense of humor!

We are very saddened at the loss of Uncle Brucie. He was very much apart of my early life.

We are so sorry that we can not be there for you all. Stay strong. You all have been in our prayers.
