Sorry Joan & Family

Mrs. Armstrong, I am an old, old neighbor when the Armstrong family lived on 80th Street. My daughter and your two boys often played together. My daughter has the dubious honor of skipping Kindergarten after two days. Jack's first wife, Rosie hung on to her until I could be located. I was likely tending to one of my wife's several medical catastrophes. I will commemorate Jack in the Divine Liturgy.
