Our dad's Ernie and Chan were brothers and looked a lot alike. Well it happened, that they to each had a son who also looked a lot alike too. One name Chan the other named Paul. both born in the same year within each of a couple months from each other. I haven't seen Chan sense we use to go up to Mima's house in Worcester on Christmas. We haven't seen each other sense we were maybe 12 years old. However I heard of him now and then other the years, both of us being 53. I am sorry to hear of my cousins death yesterday. Over the years I wondered if we still looked a lot alike? I haven't seen Aunt Theresa, Chan mother sense we were babies. I still love you Aunt Theresa and sorry to here of you and Uncle Chanie's lost! I wrote a book called "Purgatory Time Slot"! Maybe GOD will Bless me and Chan, and we will see if we still look a lot alike someday in Heaven?

Chan you will be missed dearly by family and friend. We may not have stayed in touch over the years but I have always thought of you and wondered how you were doing. One thing I can say that I do have is a lot of good memories of all the fun we had growing up as children playing in the brook, sifting in the sand pile and rolling in the leaves at Mem's house in Princeton and who can forget waving to the trains as they went by. Those are memories that know one can take away from me and you will live on in my heart forever. I will miss you my dear cousin, Rest in Peace and someday we will meet again.

Love You,
Your Cousin Joyce
