Condolences on your loss.
Enjoyed bumping into your dad at St. James in recent years, and the casual conversation that ensued. The old neighborhood has changed much over the years; and he was, if I'm not mistaken, both the first and the last of the 'originals' on this side of Ida Street. May he rest in peace.

I would like to send my love to Uncle Stevie's Family. May God bless and keep you comforted during this time of sorrow. Your Dad was a great man and so kind like his Dad. I mostly remember Christmas and Easter with him and his family. Of course we did have some summer events too. I guess getting together from his Mom's birthday was always a big event. I just thought, he passed away a day after his Mom's birthday. I know he is rejoicing with your Mom and his Mom and Dad and brothers and sisters who went before him. So we have another angel in Heaven to watch over us. Please know that we will keep you and your family in prayer. Love Elaine and AJ

My memories of Stephen & Tillie from my early years on Irving St.bring smiles to my face. My Dad, Woop Anderson, and Steve spent much time together back in the 50's and there is a crazy Halloween story that my dad liked to share. The two of them had much fun making others take a second and third look at them. It's been almost two years since Dad's passing and I send my condolences knowing words will not eliminate the pain of loss but hoping you know the love these men shared with their families will always remain.
