To the Delaney's Mike, Linda, Terry, Larry & Kelly,Your dad was a good man to all of us kids from the old days. I remember seeing him walking to and from church many times and he always took a minute to talk. Your dad was an honorable man and someone the neighborhood kids could look up to.I enjoyed seeing the photos and I still can't tell Terry and Larry apart even after all these years. We sure grew up in a great neighborhood and had countless good times. My thoughts and prayers are with your family. Dennis Marten

To Mike, Linda, Larry, Terry, Kelly, I cannot tell you how very sorry I was to hear about your Dad's passing. He was always such a gentle and kind soul and reminded me so much of my own Dad. I can still hear his voice and see his sweet smile, and will always remember the motorcycle rides he gave us kids at Grandma and Grandpa's house on Jefferson Street! Meant a lot to this little girl. What a great reunion in Heaven–just those left behind who still mourn. We'll pray for your family as you grieve his passing. Hugs and prayers, Marty and Margaret (Delaney) Monnat

To Mike, Linda, Larry, Terry, and Kelly and all of your family, so sorry to hear about your Dad. I so enjoyed living in Maple Ct , running between the yards to play with Linda having to come home when the street lights came on at dark. What a rich family and wonderful neighborhood we had to grow up in. Even though Larry & Terry would tease me with snakes it was a great life. Your Dad was always there to help with anything phones, etc. We all appreciated him. Love to you all, Penny Bernotas Moore.
