So many wonderful childhood memories on Hollywood Street with Uncle Al and Aunt Lena. I wish I could be there with you all tomorrow but I'm out of town right now. I know his brother, my Grandfather Ernie, wanted to live to be 100 too. My prayers and thoughts are with you all in this difficult time.
