Lou and family, I was sorry to read about John's passing. It seems like yesterday when we atPW and went to breakfast at the Tip-Top restaurant, they were much simpler and good times, gone but not forgotten. We always had allot of laughs. My thoughts and prayers are with your family at this sad time.
