My parents' and I use to eat at Mcpartlans corner all the time because of their dinner specials when my dad lived in Williamsville before he moved to Ellicottville. We use to go for their dinner specials all the time which you don't see any more at too many restuarants. My parents' are gone now but I am sure they would want me to leave this condolence. His family was wonderful people. I am so sorry for your loss.....Take care and stay safe during this difficult time. Better days ahead for everybody...... I hope.......
