Memories and Condolences
for Philip Trocchio

Not sure what to say?

My "sweetest" memories of Uncle Philly are truly from our house on Wilcox and Kostner..me running downstairs and sitting in his lap while he sang to me in Italian. Hearing his bellowing laughter from in the house while I sat on the stairs and him calling out "Baby Luisa!" Also, had so much fun with he and my dad when Chuck and I bought our house on Newcastle. They stripped and stained the woodwork BETTER than anything I've ever seen or will see.All the while laughing and swearing at each (as they did so well!)Ahh..one more thing..when Chuck, Lauren and I were on one of our visits to see Frankie at Yale..he sent us on a wild goose chase through the cemetary in New Haven, CT to find the Trocchio's and take pictures of the graves. We never found them. To this day I still think he never believed we did it. Had to do it because we promised Uncle Philly. LOL...too funny!!
