To Ronnie: Enjoyed the time spent with your dad here in Chicago,as well as giving him fishing lessons at Grandma's. We both stood up for each others weddings,and when you were born, your dad was grinning from ear to ear. He was very proud of you and told me he was glad you finished your schooling.We lost touch when your father moved up North with Lucy, but will always have fond memories of our earlier days as well as our police department days. Our sincere condolences. Jerry&Judy Majcher
