I know this is really long overdue, but I am so sorry for the loss of Afro. I have so many fond memories of going over to the family home And visiting my Uncle, Bob Mintz. I also remember Bonnie, one time she took my four younger brothers and I for a walk and I thought she was the nicest and prettiest girl in the world. My dad, Roger Mintz, always spoke highly of the Rahilly family. I did speak with her after my uncle Bob passed away. She spoke of her beautiful grandchildren.
