Janice and Claudia: My condolences to you and your family. I think I only met your dad once or twice. My thoughts will be with you. Your old friend from St. Casimir's.

Janice and Claudia, your dad was such a big part of my growing up - families back then were always together, laughing, having fun and Uncle Johnny was a huge part of the "fun". The one thing I will cherish forever - a new vocabulary word that only a select few know it's definition - "zits". I can remember it like yesterday but the word lives on and we speak of it often. With the fondest of memories of Uncle Johnny,
Marcy
