I am so sorry to hear about your loss. I recently visited Manchester to see the house my grandfather (Michael's uncle, Armand) grew up in. Michael was very sweet to direct me to it, the cemetery where Joseph and Emma are buried, and the World War II memorial. On behalf of all of Armand and Mary Lee's family, I offer my condolences. God Bless.
