Not sure what to say?

Tempus Fugit old man...10 years gone and we are hanging in there...with my hands on the steering wheel of the Camry...I think of you every ride: pedal, pedal pedal- my hair is almost as white as Aunt Grace's: you would like it! "Tomorrow is promised to No One" You were so right about so many thing!

Neither Death nor Time will ever break the bond between us.

Cari Susan, Andrew e John, vi siamo vicini in questo momento di grande dolore.

Mr. Corbo, as he was known to us neighborhood kids, will always be etched in my mind as I remember him forty years ago. Full of fun and life and a with happy smile. I can still hear the sound of his voice.

I will always cherish the hours he spent with us, the countless button hooks, slants and down and out patterns we ran as he threw the football to us. The family parties, great food and fireworks on July 4th. The leisure time at the swim club.

My father and I wish him...

JC Senior,
Since I met you I have always wondered how you are, from time to time we spoke, and I wish it were not such a long time that I have not seen you. I still have the rocks you made, save the one that lost it's eyes. Still have the rock, no eyes. You were a tough guy with strong opinions and a kind heart. The world will miss you and your stories.

"JC Pops" Thank You for being part of my two-wheeled life. I am glad John and my father got to know each other. They were very much alike.

I remember having breakfast with JC and he said this to me: "Isn't that thing itchy? It's gotta be hot in Florida?" I replied; You get used to it. There was a pause and JC said "I remember when you didn't have any hair." then he said "Ya Know, You're still you on the inside"

Thank You to the Corbo Family for letting me be "The Lanai...

Although my friendship with you started when I was a young adult I still remember all the stories and the movies I play in my head from all the pictures and slides....I do remember all the times you squeezed my cheeks and how much I hated it...you were always kind and funny and always always had a good idea about a food business I should run.
Now that your gone the stories and pics will remain the same but no one will ever squeeze my cheeks the way you did... Thanks for all the...
