Dear Beverly Maselli,
Since my visit to him, I subsequently called his room 3 different times - unfortunately, you weren't there and he didn't seem to recognize me and seemed a little incoherent. You are a caring devoted caretaker.
I miss him and his historic discussions about the tri-village area and Riverera Country Club. He was an excellent barber.
God Bless.

I'll miss our chats at the shop, God Bless.
Rest easy now in His strong arms!
