Dear Carol, Marge, Albert, Jay and all of Angelos's family: I feel enriched to have known Angelo and saddened that he is no longer with us. He was indeed a renaissance man -- intelligent and curious about many facets of life. Our many outings to the local ballpark were always "occasions," particularly when the local Red Sox were playing their arch rival, Angelo's Yankees. Taking in a ball game with him was truly a trip back in time as he regaled me with stories of Ruth, Gehrig, Dimaggio, et al. It's too bad that there isn't a "husband of the year" award, because Angelo certainly would have won it. His devotion to Rita is what marriage should be. The rest of us can only hope to live up to his example. I have a 93 year old uncle who is almost like a father to me. Carol, your father was like an uncle. I will miss him. Most sincerely, Jeff Crown
