This message is for Normand, the son of Robert. Normand, I'd like to send you my deepest sympathies for the passing of your father. We (my father and I) have kept good memories of the time when we lived on the second floor, above your family at 120 Massasoit Street. Like you, I was just a young girl at the time. In spite of the distance, our families always remained in contact. Our thoughts are with you, Linda and Ronald Pomrleau xx

Norman,
Laurie and I send our deepest sympathies to your family.
I have wonderful memories chatting with your dad over the past 30+ years and enjoying all the tasty veggies from his garden. I was blessed to have him as a neighbor.
