: Obviously, that's me on the left, with sister Kathy & brother Ronnie. In front, is Grandma & Mom. Photo taken about 2 and a half years ago at Grandma's 100th birthday party.

: Old Granny passed away on Tuesday, March 11, 2002 at the tender young age of 102 ... my last real link to the "old country," Italy. This remarkable & loving woman saw EVERY SINGLE minute, of every day, of the 20th Century ... in itself, quite an achievement! I will miss her dearly.

: Many of you may have heard of the shooting at a Catholic Church on Long Island, in Lynbrook, yesterday morning. A Priest and a worshipper were gunned down during morning Mass. The Priest, a day earlier, had blessed my Grandmother at her deathbed. Her funeral Mass was to be held at that very Church ... Very small, and very sick, World.

: Anyway, I'm off to the real wilds of New York for her funeral, and to see if I can find the Twin Towers. I'll look for you all along the road ... be back with you over the weekend.

Rich:

Sorry to hear of your loss. She looked like a really sweet lady.

Have a safe trip.
