Pat,Carol, Jeanne,Denise,
We were so sorry to hear of the passing of Babe. He was such a kind, caring, gentle and loving man. So many wonderful memories of seeing him on Highland Ave. and on so many Wolfeboro vacations. A favorite memory for Steve and I ... when our girls were babies..he came out of his motel unit and over to our place and offered to wheel the baby carriage to get our baby (Kathleen) to sleep ,
so we could take a break. He was always so thoughtful!
Babe..may you rest in peace...you will be missed by so many.
