Dear Mrs. Talamonti, Mark & Anne, Sharyle & James, and your families: My wife Sue and I are truly saddened by your loss. Your Husband and your Father was a good man. I will always hold fond memories of him as a coach at St. Kiernan's for football and basketball. He actually was the only coach who taught me how to tackle Dave "JU-JU" Bowman, a teammate, while we practiced under the lights. Our sympathies to you all.
