Hello,
A cousin in Florida sent me this obituary. Sorry for your loss. My maiden name is Duquette and my father lived in Rhode Island when he was young and before moving to Connecticut.
Eugene's father Lionel is not one of my father's brothers but wondered where the connection is.
my office email is [email protected] if you have a chance to answer me.
God Bless.
