Elaine, my heart goes out to you. Only the best of memories of you and your family other than Steve always resented that I was the only child able to have chocolate milk in the first grade. After years, I believe he forgave me.

I have fond memories of Mr. Shirosky growing up in our neighborhood, playing whiffle ball in his back yard. He was a great family man. My condolences go out to all the members of the Shirosky family and especially those who were my childhood friends growing up on Austin St. in Bridgewater, MA.
