Dear Jackie, I was deeply saddened by the news of your father's passing. My heart felt condolences to you and your family. I will have fond memories of us growing up around your family, your father teaching me how to catch a baseball ( he almost succeeded). In these changing times it is always nice to reflect on what it means for someone to be a man, a husband, and a father. Knowing your love and respect for him it was obvious that he was a good man. The measure of a man is not - "how did he die" But - "how did he live" Not - "what did he gain" But - "what did he give" These are the units to measure the worth. By this your father's life was priceless. Sandee Panaccione (nee Farnham)
