Both Alvin and Rita were devoted library users for decades. It was always the greatest pleasure to see them sitting side by side at so many Barrington library programs. We will miss them very much. Deborah Barchi, Director, Barrington Public Library

We were so sorry to hear about your parents recent passing. We were friends when we and they first moved to Barrington 40+ years-ago. May they both rest in Peace.

So sorry to read of your Dad's passing so soon after your Mom. My late husband and I both worked with your Dad when he started at Wayland so many years ago. Please know I'm thinking of you and saying a prayer for all. Knowing they are together again should be of great comfort to you. They were wonderful people.
