Thank you for ALL the great memories, old and new. I will never forget dinner every Sunday at the three flat with everyone & eating all that pasta!

I hope you sharing your laughter in the after life with some of the greats up there. Keep an eye out on us down here from time to time ;) Thanks for always being such a cool grandpa to me!
