    Linny, Joanne, Bobby, Jimmy, Terri, Ronnie and Arnoni family. We go back a lot of years. It's hard to believe it was almost 60 years ago when Bobby and I were little tykes in our early years at St. Sylvesters and playing in your living room on Woodrow Ave. I remember when your dad would pay us to wash the garbage trucks at the garage in Broughton when we were in high school and of course my first job the summer I graduated from BHS was a trash collector on Donny's truck with South Hills Disposal. Your mom and dad were pillars of the Brentwood community and staunch supporters of our parish, St. Sylvester's. You mom put up with all of our crazy antics at the Arnoni homestead on Kaufmann Avenue over the years and I have so many of fond memories from growing up on Kaufmann Ave. She was a wonderful lady. You have our deepest sympathy; our thoughts and prayers are with you at this time of sorrow.
