Tony, Bob and Mike,
My sincere condolences on the recent loss of your father. Crack, as most of us who knew him called him, was a very straight shooter, always had a joke/story to tell and well respected by everyone in our family. I am only sorry I didn’t get to see him or your mother in these last few years. Call me if you get a chance, it would be great talking with you once more.
Jim
Sorry to here of your Dad’s passing. My Mother was in contact over the years with your Mom and Dad. Many fond memories. You all are in our thoughts and prayers. From Watertown NY.
