Dear Caryn, Jim, and Stacey and Families...
I just learned of the passing of your dad. I am so sorry. Just Saturday Michelle and I were talking about your parents and the lovely visit we had with them at the Shore home. We loved your parents very much and I remember so many great parties and celebrations. I was sharing with Jim just the other day how your dad was furious with Mrs. Hanlon, my 4th grade teacher at St. Joseph's in Newark, because she hit me with a pointer for stepping over my chair. He went down to the school and told them they would have to deal with him if anything like that ever happened again.
He was my hero and guided me when I was a youngster. I will miss him...he was constantly in my thoughts and prayers. He was a wonderful, husband, father, son and uncle too!
Again, I am so sorry for your loss.
With lots of love and sympathy
Irene Dumas
