Not sure what to say?

Frank and I went to grammar school at Our Lady of Sorrows in Garfield NJ and we were best friends. We had many great adventures together as we experienced the joys of growing up in a little town. I vividly remember us exploring the open spaces in our town (probably long gone), playing Pinball, playing Football in Frank’s backyard and Basketball in mine. We played Pool in Frank’s basement while listening to 'The Four Seasons' and 'The Beach Boys.' I cannot listen to any of their songs...

Karie and Jennifer,
Your Dad and I were childhood friends who graduated from Our Lady of Sorrows RC grade school.(graduating class of 63). Your Dad lived on Market St and I lived on Semel Ave one block away. We met in the fourth grade. He had an infectious laugh and outrageous sense of humor. There are many stories and memories that bring a smile to my face. We were also altar boys together.
Maybe at a later date I can share some of the memories.
With sympathy,
Michael Greco

I LOVE YOU GRANDMA, I WISH YOU HAD THE CHANCE TO KNOW ALYSSA ALTHOUGH YOU DID MEET HER,...

Smile though your heart is aching
Smile even though it's breaking
When there are clouds in the sky, you'll get by
If you smile through your fear and sorrow
Smile and maybe tomorrow
You'll see the sun come shining through for you

Light up your face with gladness
Hide every trace of sadness
Although a tear may be ever so near
That's the time you must keep on trying
Smile, what's the use of crying?
You'll find that life is still worthwhile
If...

"OUR DEEPEST SYMPATHY TO BOTH OF YOU GIRLS. I WILL ALWAYS REMEMBER THE FIRST DAY YOUR DAD CAME HOME TO OUR HOUSE (HE WAS ONLY 3 DAYS OLD). YOUR DAD WAS LIKE A LITTLE BROTHER TO ME AND WE GREW UP TOGETHER. I WAS 9 AT THE TIME. THERE WERE SO MANY GOOD TIMES WE HAD OVER THE YEARS. YOUR DAD WASN'T OLD ENOUGH TO BE IN MY WEDDING PARTY AS AN USHER SO WE HAD HIM BE OUR ALTER BOY. WE HAD MANY A GOOD TIME UP THE FARM. I REMEMBER A FARTING CONTEST WE HAD UP THERE AND THE LAST WEEKEND ON THE FARM...

Dear Jennifer & Karie,
Our deepest sympathy to both of you girls. I will always remember the first day your dad came home to our house (he was only 3 days old). Your dad was like a little brother to me and we grew up together. I was 9 at the time. Your dad was to young to be an usher in my wedding but he was our Alter Boy.We had such good times up the farm. The farting contest we had one night, and the last weekend on the farm, when we blew up everything in sight. I could write a book...

Well it has been two weeks and I still think I can call my Dad and say hi. I still can not believe it. This experience has been very difficult to deal with. I thank everyone as well for all your thoughtful and kind words and support to me, my sister and my dad. I'm glad my sister and I were there for his last days, it will never be forgotten. He will never be forgotten...Dad, I hope you know how much we miss you and love you. I hope you are with Grandpa and all our family and enjoying them....
