Jean, I wanted to share my sympathies with you and your family. It has been many years since I have seen you. I remember all the good times we had together bowling and listening to Ed play at Lake Compounce. Also the times we went out to hear Ed play. I hope you remember those good times too. I lost Joe four years ago, so I know how you feel right now. My thoughts are with you. If you get a chance e-mail me or write me a little note. Maybe we can get together and reminise about old times. Hope I hear from you sometime in the future. Love, Diane Tierney (Joe Tierney\’s wife) Address is 10 Orchard St. Meriden, Ct. 06450
