Dear Maggie, Jim and Paul Jr: My family sends their deepest sympathy to the family. My husband ( Charlie Whalen) and I saw the memorial that the grandkids made on the pike and it really touched us. It brought back all the great memories of your Dad and Mom. Never remember your Dad without your Mom on the tow truck- going down the pike. My/our first pony rides at the Delco Horse Show. Swiming at your house and being amazed that you had a barn and horses. All the trophies and ribbons in that den in your house. The carriage pictures of Maggies wedding at the pond. All the great cars your Dad got us. He was just one the best people that I have ever met. He took such great care of your Mom when she was ill. God bless him and your family. They will always remain one of the finest family's from the "Square"

My dad did many good things for a lot of people He gave a chance for kids to do things they may never have expierienced Midget race cars,Pony rides, Stage coach and carriage rides and pony shows in his back yard giving trophies to the kids. He hand built many horse drawn wagons He took care of my Mom for 5 yrs before she died.I will think of him often in the future. He touched so many people in his life.
I really loved him.
