Lew aka Mr. Kendrick was a hardworking, good man who shared his life and home with extended family. He also instilled in me a work ethic at an early age, cleaning windows at their Glendale Ave home. I think I got 25c/window AND a fine lunch afterwards.

Lucie and I were childhood friends and I certainly wish the best for those who are left behind.
