He accomplished much in his life Good man. May he rest in peace.
Sad to hear of Frank's passing. He had an outstanding career in city planning and municipal administration.
I was shocked to see Carol Perilli's name in In Memory when I checked my email this morning. She was so alive in my memory. I enjoyed seeing her for the last time at a Class of 65 get-together at Shirley Nelson Doogue's house the year following the 50 yr class reunion which I had been unable to attend. She looked just as I remembered her and still had her cheerful personality. I know we are at the point in life where we will see more of our high school classmates die; but this passing really hit me. Goodbye Carol.
Rest in Peace

Paul (Porky) O'Connell was a neighbor and a classmate of mine at Abraham Lincoln School in East Braintree. He was also a friend. I remember in the 6th grade his dad died. It was the first wake I ever attended. Thanks to Billy Chase I have our kindergarten class picture with Porky wearing a cowboy shirt as a reminder of my long ago friend . It is my pc wallpaper, so I see him almost daily.
Ron, so glad to have known you from East Braintree little league through high school soccer. You're one of the good guys. I remember when we ran into each other at the Braintree soccer game while we were both "working". I'm glad that we had the chance to have a long lunch together the day before you had your first mini reunion at the Granite Grill. So much in common.
you will be missed! Rest in peace.
