Truer words were never spoken. Was gonna look up my cousin Cookie on last visit to Baltimore. I was so in love with her as a teenager.And i mean LOVE, not lust. 1st cousins, Catholic,so I was dead on arrival. Best memory : She was married a year, new baby. lived in bad neighborhood. I would stop by and put out the word she was my cousin. Would bring a gallon of milk, land o lakes butter,
and hot loaf of fresh bread from bakery around the corner. Share at her kitchen table.

Also Miss USO during Vietnam War and Annette Funicello look alike. Had no seen her in years so googled and up popped her obituary.
Succumbed to cancer after a long battle at age 62.


DAMN !!!

What a horrible curse of a disease........

Maybe we can get Adelson to donate more money to Cancer reasearch......would be money better spent than his previous donations spree!

I grew up with Kevin's dad and older brothers. We went to the same school, played ball together.... got hired for my first job by one of them. Great people all of them. IF there ever was a family that deserved a miracle they were the ones.....
