Honey IS truly the most special person that I've ever had the pleasure and honor of knowing. From the first time that I met her on 46th, until her 95th birthday celebration at the Flags Club, she would always give me an affectionate punch in the arm (in our younger days), or a whack with her cane (in our later days), just to keep me in line for all the things that she knew I did when she wasn't around to see me do them. Honey, I'm going to miss those punches and whacks. You are one of the most memorable people I've had in my life. Thank you for keeping me in line.
Your legacy is the LARGE wonderful and extremely loving family that you leave behind. My love and sympathy, Joe "Lumpy" Callan
