Sam and Bill, So sorry to read about the loss of your father. Actually it was my mother who spotted the article. Although it's been many, many years I can still remember him. Take care.

My deepest sympathy. Bill was a wonderful man. I enjoyed the time I spent with him in Occupational Therapy.

Incline thine ear Oh Lord,to our prayer ,in which we humbly entreat thy mercy. Bring to the country of peace and light the soul of thy servant William Ricchio,who thou has summened to go forth from this earth and bid it to be numbered amongst thine Saints,thru Christ Our Lord.



Thanks for all the great conversation and free coke!
