My daughter Melissa and I were very honored to care for "Eddie Spaghetti" during his stay at Harborside. I cared for him at
Greenwood, and he was always there to greet me with a big smile. He was one of Melissa's Special friends at Pawtuxet Village. He will be greatly missed. Our Thoughts are with his family at this time. I'm sure he will be watching us from a much better place.

To Pam and the entire Woodbine Family, I knew Mr. Woodbine from my good friend Pam and my days in high school. I remember Pam's dad picking us up at Burger King, the movies, etc., in his Pacer. He was a very nice Dad to all his children and always nice to me. My deepest sympathies. Michele (Graziano) Brouillard.

To Ted's Loving Family,

I worked with Ted years ago at The Carpet Giant. He was one of the sweetest men I've ever met. He always made us laugh. My thoughts and prayers go out to his entire family at this difficult time.
