I'm so sorry! Pat, Sherry, Pam, Dawn, Belinda. Your husband and dad was a great friend, cousin, and Masonic Brother to Little Tony , Jimmy and me. I remember, all night card games, mumbley peg, fishing in Delaware Bay and the tide going out and almost not getting back, and Buddy shaving with a straight razor (I still can't). I will miss him greatly. Love to all, Cousin Billy Ray
