Cos´s sister in law is my best friend of 52 years. Cos and his lovely wife Judy invited us to their home for Thanksgiving week. They even arranged a place for us to stay at one of their friends home, who was going to be out of town. My husband played golf with him and his sons. We all played games and cooked, ate and drank and had an incredible time. Cos and Judy´s children daughter Carol, sons Tom & Alan and families were also there. It was one of the most pleasant times. My husband, Bruce, and I ever had. Cos treated us like family from the moment we arrived. what a gracious, kind man he was. The world was a better place with him in it. I know he is gone to a beautiful place along with his love Judy. Would love Bruce and Fran Mcconnell.
