To my "only" father-in-law, I will miss you. You were always there for me. Whenever a "bad" storm was coming you always opened your door so Stanton, Amber and I could be safe while the thunder brewed outside. You taught me how to play pinochle and win. My memories are many. I will keep your spirit alive in the heart of Aiden.

The first daughter in law who gave birth to your first born grandchildren...I would like to send my expression of sympathy to my ex-husband Rem and his family. Lots of memories of clam bakes and gatherings at "the farm". Your Dad was of the old school upbringing and he let you know his opinions on anything from politics to the best cigars. He worked hard and was a very private man. He liked the game show Family Feud and the TV sitcom All In The Family. While residing on Madison St, he would make a visit to the pool hall on Hamilton St toting his own stick in hand. He played a pretty mean game of pool..a top competitor. When Remita was on Gordon St, he would pickup the paper and his cigars then get the crew(s) out on their jobs, go back to the farm to cut grass, chop wood, clean the pool etc. His homemade wine was stored in the basement to ferment..then after time he would bring it out for all to taste. Dandelion and elderberry were two of his favorites. These are a few of my memories of your Dad.
Respectfully yours,
Janet
