Romy and Family,
No Wrods can ease the pain at this time! John Was a great man, I loved coming home from the Navy and Stopping in to See you and Him at the Rest. He would talk to me about his time in the service and wonder if it was still the same. I am thinking about you all at this time. God Bless.

I love you and miss you Dad. You were very brave with this illness, and you put up a good fight. I knew you were tired when you said "enough is enough", but you gave it your best. We watched Yankee games together right to the end. They came back and won that last night, and without even knowing it, they did it for you. Rest in Peace Pops. I love you!!!
