Carolyn and Tommy,

Its hard to believe that both of your parents are together in Heaven. I lost Dad in September of 2007 and I guess they are talking about old times in the neighborhood. You know where to find me if there is anything I can do. You are in my thoughts and prayers.

I am so sorry to hear of Sebastian's passing. My dad, Joe Pete Scanlin, grew up on the farm next to the Maniscalco's. My dad also served in WW2 and says he knew Sebastian.
