Mr. B, For the past 35 years our families became intertwined as one extended family. We shared both the good times and bad, and looked to each other for comfort and joy. As this chapter of our lives come to an end, it is up to us to write new ones, and keep the old ones alive. We will fondly remember many holidays and parties together. So we will help celebrate your life with your family and keep all those wonderful memories alive. RIP Love, The Terebecki Family

Pop,

I hope my kids turn out as well. Have a wonderful Thanksgiving in Heaven - We will be thinking of you both.

I will never forgive myself for not taking the time to sit with him. I just saw...

Joe, I will sadly miss our early morning coffee chats at Dunkin Donuts. RIP.
Your coffee buddy, Bob
