October 20, 2019 at 3:57 pmUntil I was lucky enough to hang out with the Carbone family in the mid-80s at their lovely home in Haverhill, I never met a family that truly enjoyed being with one another – or one that welcomed any newcomer as an old friend. Many years later, I realize just how rare and special that is – and I am deeply thankful I had the chance to experience it. With love in my heart and sadness at the fast passage of time, I am so very sorry for your loss. Jerry was a great man.
