Marion, Tommy and Timmy, I feel so badly for not getting Dad's Passing. Your Dad was a great man, I'll skip the Golf Stories. So many years at the beach and a good time never stopped. I'm crazy about your Mom, I think the last time I saw her was when Uncle John passed, and certainly he never sat, just holding on for dear life I guess. He was and forever a Gentleman he wasn't to popular when the retired those stupid fishing hats ๐๐คฃ. Snazzy dresser and bring back "respect and pride'. That didn't stop, he finally got the streets to get behind the Men and Woman, they weren't bagging grocery, they were willing to keep EVERYONE SAFE,. They worked hard (some) they studded took classes and best of all are there at the worst time in their life, everyone; Women, Elderly, loss of a loved one and comfort children so later in life not to relive a horror situation and hate Blue and use them as a scapegoat. My favorite part was him Sharp as a tack, "Johnnie Scanlon' early on the job somehow got stung by a Bee ๐ and did he tell anyone that important information, no but from that day to the last carried his needles to keep him alive until my Gram got to the Hospital. No idea while I'm laughing, working the Hot Dog Cart and left a soda open, needless to say took a drink and got stung, lips, tongue and down my thought. I wobbled into and your Dad took one look and asked if I was allergic also, threw me in his car and I woke up with George Farlend sitting with me I though for sure I was a dunner. I'm so sorry actually really it's Trumps fault, a few strokes I try to stay far away from the news paper and Nightly News. An old Irish saying is "we are country cousins", Rooke, Weldon, Sullivan, Scanlon's, I could go on and on, but please extend my sorry to Mom, and Tommy thank you for helping Gram with the "not so Merry Party", your kindness when Bud Fitzpatrick and Betty Fitz suddenly passed and of course my own little "Shop of Horrors". Last never least Timmy the 20+ Springfield and Holyoke Parade Committee's, and no you weren't a member but plenty of fun s your surprise visits, just kidding. Man what a surprise the days before our Mayor and Bud was your trio, God bless Mossy Granfield you were all a handful. But a few years later I was and still proud to make the rounds the best man keeps his seat. Walter my friend I'll see you on the other side, (but not just yet) Hug and Kisses for you all, Lisa๐๐ป๐ซ๐ฎ๐ผ๐บ๐
