I Love this story! I could picture every scene and feel the warmth and caring from your grandfather.

What a sweet tale - grandparent memories warm the heart. When you include the photos even better. Handsome man your grandad...see the gene pool for sure! Buona Pasqua to you and Diane, warm hugs and regards to the family.

Ed, a pleasant experience to remember for a lifetime.

Thanks, Peter. I figured we needed something light and . . . Fluffy

Ed, yes, the knife has a sharp edge and a blunt side. Both have a purpose.

I agree. Buona Pasqua

I also remember looking at those baby chicks at Ben Franklins. I never was able to have any, we didn't own our house. That's where I bought kites, yo-yos, paddle balls and other assorted toys. One of my favorite stores, also Benny's.

I loved those stores, Ed. Happy Easter

The 40's and 50's were such a wonderful time to be growing up in that area. have so many great memories that I've never forgotten and will always cherish. Happy Easter to you also.
