I can remember the first time that Alec and I met. He walked down from his house on the corner of Grove and Aber roads while we were playing tag football on the street. We became good friends after that first meeting. It was not long after that that the game was always Alec and me against all the other boys that lived on Aber in tag football. Alec and I were in school together from Blessed Sacrament through Penn Hills High School although I was a year ahead in school. May he Rest In Peace.

Rest in peace, my dear friend. We shared a love for late nights, babies, Harry Chapin and the Divine Miss M. You are remembered with much love and joy.

Old friends, they mean much more to me than the new friends,Cause they can see where you are,And they know where you've been. Let Time Go Lightly, Harry Chapin

Amelia and PopPop. PopPop was a supremo snuggler and Amelia would have been highly placed in the Featherweight class.

Pop-pop took me to my first ever musical at the local childrens theatre when I was really young, and one of the last times I was in Pittsburgh he took me to another, “The Full Monty”. We all had a good laugh at the closing scene when the full Monty happened and the lights in the stage went out. My favorite memories of him are surrounded by music, theatre, and his excitement for the arts. Missing him and loving to see all these photos ❤️
