I want to extend my condolences to a wonderful lady I remember so well when my aunt and uncle , the Porto’s, had a house at Villas, NJ . Mrs Parra reminded me of the lady who played Mother Nature in the butter commercials and the line” It’s not nice to fool Mother Nature” . I remember when Aunt Helen would take me to get a haircut from Andrew Parra at the beauty salon they worked at in Ardmore. Mrs Parra , God Bless You and Rest in Eternal Peace. The best times of my life were when Mr Parra discussed politics with my uncle over morning coffee, all in good fun!
