Condolence: Aunt Connie , Hesch , Louis & families When I was 24 years old , just engaged to be married , April & I were searching Bay Ridge for apartments. We stumbled on this small 1st floor apt. on Bay 10th street in " the Italian neighborhood " Not a snowballs chance in he** I was moving there . Your cousin Anthony one of my buddies was adamant about us taking the place saying My Uncle Lou and Aunt Connie live 2 doors away . We spent 5 years living next door and with the Esposito's . A popular tv show at the time was Everybody Loves Raymond and WOW did I let your family know how much you resembled the Barone's . To say I grew up with the Esposito's would be an understatement . Prior to moving to NJ we brought the first of our 3 children home to that tiny place on Bay 10th street , and the Esposito family took Riley in as their own . Aunt Connie morphed into Marie Baron immediately . From the smart a** Irish kid next door that broke Uncle Lou's chops who could ever forget (the fake break in ), ( Tuna sleeps w/ the Fish) ,( St Paddy Day Bagpipes ) I was now a dad myself. To Louis & Anthony please know so much I learned of being a Dad was from watching your father inter-act and raise you both .... (twisted I know , but 100 % true ) Your fathers love and reverance for his family was inspiring and it certainly left an impression with me . I thank you for sharing him with us . Frank,April & family

Condolence: Dear Anthony, I was very sorry to hear of you Father's passing. I extend to you my heartfelt sympathy. Sincerely Patrick
