Not sure what to say?

I worked at Lakeside in 1963-64 until I was inducted in the USAF. I learned a lot about restaurants and people a Lakeside. Many stories by Jack, Bobby Driskell (Chef) and Harry the backer. First job out of high school. Wow! Welcome to the real world. Fond memories.

My dad Rocco was a good friend and navy man to god bless both of them

Thanks to the Hackett Family in Lynnfield, I always had a place to "hang out" on Summer Street :) So sorry for your loss, God Bless all of you.

I can remember "Jack Hackett's" the restaurant in Ipswich as a kid in the 60's who grew up in Lynnfield. I can remember my father saying to my mother and I, "Let's go out to Jack Hackett's". I can recall all of them in lively conversations-great memories. Your father was a super guy.
