  22. I first met Cousin Ed at the Laudano Picnics of the 1940’s, but didn’t remember him from that. We met up again in 2004 at the resumption of the Laudano Picnics. I have to agree with all that he was a wonderful cook. My daughter loved his crabs and linguini that he made for us all. We came to these picnics from Pennsylvania. I enjoyed my last conversation with him on June 7th and did see him at their 50th Wedding Anniversary Party at Brazi’s. He loved his family very much and was very proud of them all.
