Dear Lorraine and family,
I am so sorry to hear about Tony's death. On the same day (28th), some of us Penksas were gathered for a family reunion and thoughts included Tony.
I remember days of our youth and Richie and Tosciu horsing around with cousin Ruthy....me.
My prayer for your family at this time and a promise of any support I can offer you.

With love, Ruthy
