Robbie,  I just heard of your father's passing. Im so sorry to hear of your loss.  You know that, your mother was not sure she could carry a child, and then you came along... and your father was so proud of you and loved you very much . And your mother loved and adore you very much and also was so proud of you. Your father drove all the way to NJ to pick me up to take care of you then, your mom was in the Hospital , shortly after your birth. some day we will talk about that time ...I loved my Cousin Brenda very much and think of her often, and now they are together in Heaven , for the loved each other very much and I know your Dad missed her so much.
