To Peggy and Family,
Now approximately one year later, I'm hoping that things are more manageable for you.
Even though I live in Enfield now, I still think back and remember Junior to be a very caring, kind and compassionate and giving man. He was always in the background, behind the scenes mostly, but you always knew he was there to help. When I was living at 32 Mucko Road from 1999-2005, and Iwalked a lot to relieve frustration, sometimes I'd see him walking on Peters Road. He'd tell me it was to stay in good health/physical condition for his family and we'd commiserate about the ups and downs of life: how my life was going, what brought me back to Bloomfield, etc. He was very sympathetic to my plight. When I think back to all our family get-togethers, family masses celebrated with Uncle Ziggy, I have to smile and a special warmth wraps around my heart: those are happy times. I am truly blessed to have had him as one of my Uncles, simple, straight forward, no frills. He was resolute and unassuming when he learned that I didn't drive any more and without hesitation offered me transportation anywhere I needed to go when I'd see him at family get-togethers, mostly funerals. I will always remember him as a happy, dedicated man to life, and the Uncle just up the road always willing to lend a hand!

To Peggy and Family,I am so sorry for your Loss of Junior. Please let me extend the deepest condolences to you and yours.I believe the last time I saw most of you was at Uncle Ziggy's funeral Mass and the reception afterwards. Lorraine Powers has been keeping in touch and lets me know from time to time how the family is doing. As I don't drive any more and locating transportation is very difficult, I will not be able to attend the wake or the funeral Mass. I deeply apologize for this. Please know that my warmest thoughts and prayers are with you and yours.Love,Cathy Kriss12B Union StreetEnfield, CT 06082(760) 518-1131
