Gina, my sympathy upon the loss of your dear father. You do not know me but I heard good things about you from Eleanor DePaolo, a close friend and my husband's cousin. I was at the Memorial Service this summer but didn't get to talk with you. Your Dad and my John were a year apart in age and the four of us had some good times together when we lived in MD. The two of them spent a night here in Victor NY with us several years ago. He loved my daughter's organic farm. He shaded so much of his interesting life that it was a pleasure talking with him. Again, my sympathy to you upon the loss of this kind, dear man. Most sincerely, Marylou Lagana
