May the love of friends and family carry you through your grief.
I remember when my folks were building their house on Green St., I was driving a truck filled with building materials up Ridge St. and stalled it and couldn't get it going again. I stuck my head out the window and called loudly "Orangie" several times. He came to my rescue!
