Sandy and family, I offer my prayers and condolences on the passing of your Dad . Your Mom and Dad were great friends with my parents Eleanor and Skip Keegan. Growing up on Hopewell Drive I remember how nice and kind your father was to all of us Keegan boys! Take solace in knowing your Dad is in Heaven now with your Mom and Karen keeping a loving watchful eye on the family he loved so very much! RIP Mr. Gramkowski...
