Tony was “ledge Vitti” as a lineman for the Rams and always tough to get through.
Lots of good times during our years in NC schools.

Dear Carolyn, Debbye and families,

I read about dad just a few minutes ago, I am so sorry to learn of his passing. If I had known earlier I would have been there. Mom and dad followed one another so soon, I guess they wanted to be together. There are so many memories I hold of them both and you girls. It's really sad our lives in our latter years took us apart for so many reasons. I know one thing, your mom and dad had a wonderful marriage and were very devoted to one another. I remember the day they married, the look in both of their eyes. When they said until death, they meant it. Carolyn, I'll never forget your baby shower, your mother must have been sewing for months to make you a wardrobe and then some! of infant clothes. Dad, waited patiently and let her do her thing saying well she made sure she had enough, but I think the baby
may grow faster than Carolyn will be able to change her. They were cute!
They are in my prayers and you and your families are in my thoughts. If you would like to keep in touch I'm in the phone book in West Haven under O'Hara. I do not know where to reach you. Again, my deepest sympathy.

Love Gloria Hudak-O'Hara
