In the name of Justice, rest in peace my friend. Mr.Limone, my friend and pinochle partner from back in the . . . day, was a breath of fresh air in a stale environment. He brought light where there was darkness. It goes without saying, you will be truly missed! We spent many, many hours playing pinochle together, and mastered the game. Peter loved the game, but loved his family even more. Peter was very competitive (as was I) and we didn't like to lose. . . who does?, but the truth is, I think we lost, once. Well my friend, we have all lost now. Our loss, is Heaven's gain! My condolence's to your family, Mr. Limone.
