Chip and family. .my expression of sympathy to all of you. I always remember piling in the back seat of your dad's car hitching a ride home from practice or games at Holy Cross. Your dad always encouraged me and supported me. May he RIP.

Dear Chip: Gene & I are so very sorry to read of your dad's passing. He was such a phenomenal man to know. Great gentleman, neighbor, friend & willingly gave his time to others. And three terrific children that cared for him deeply. I know he will be greatly missed.
And to read of Kathy's passing shocked both of us terribly. Though it's been many years, we remember her fondly as such a lovely and caring individual.
We offer our utmost condolences to both you and your sister, Nancy, and Kathy's family, over her untimely passing. May God's blessing be with all of you at this difficult time. Sincerely--- Gene & Joe Lombardi
