Sharkey,
We met our senior year in high school. You were the class treasure & I was editor of the senior class paper. We spent the weekend of our senior prom down the shore with 3 other couples, you started calling me HY LIT because after a few beers everyone thought my jokes were pretty funny. I remember graduation night in your backyard listening to Sinatra. The last time I saw you was about 40+ years ago on a cold morning on Broad street I took a swig of whatever you were drinking, we hugged & wished each other a happy new year. I hope you had a good life my friend. My condolences to your family and may you rest in peace.
