So sorry to hear about Junior, I will alway remember his smiling face and how he loved to talk about his days at Com Ed and traveling. Will keep him in our prayers.

Thank you Mr. DeMarco for all of the time you gave to Troop 701 and teaching boys a little about growing up. I will always treasure the camping trips to Owasippe and canoe trips and the Klondike Derby. God Bless the DeMarco family.
