Susan Mark Sherry Wanda.

Susan thanks for reaching out.

Uncle Wally has that one in a million smile. I will never forget his teasing me 60 years ago when growing up in the old neighborhood.

The only time I would drink a glass of Mogen David Concord Wine was with Uncle Wally.

I will be toasting his memory this weekend with a glass of Mogen David this weekend.

Love and Condolences,

Nephew and Cousin Rod
