Although many years have passed since I worked at Dr. Berkow's office on Convery Blvd in Perth Amboy, I will never forget the loving and kind couple who used to be patients, John and Theresa. I was saddened to hear of John's passing, and also to learn Theresa passed in '95 and of Helen's passing as well. May they all rest in peace. I remember them always being so very proud of Jay, and always telling us of his latest plans. A wonderful family.
