Dear Mrs. Dyra, Tom and Family,
I was so sad to hear that Mr. Dyra had passed away.
While I have not seen him in many years, I have many memories of his presence when Tom and the bunch of us were romping through the basement apartment, wreching havoc.
Best wishes,
Tom McGovern

Dolores, Sorry to hear of Joe's passing. Now that I am older his passing seems too soon. After all these years from 8th grade Queens you are the only classmate I know. So I especially am sorry for your loss.
