As a child I loved going into their candy store and would wait each day until my dad finished worked which was located across the street from their store,so he would take me in there to see what new toy he had for my dad to buy me. I think I had every new spin top and yoyo that they would sell. Please tell him that Tommy Liguori's daughter said hello |

Uncle Angelo passed away, but Uncle Carlo and Uncle Tony are well and living in Long Island. Dad and Mom are now living in Staten Island closer to me. My Grandmother did help out in the store,especially in the mornings and on Sunday's. You may remember my brothers Sal and Joe. We all helped out in the store at one time or another. |

However I did hear of Jimmy the butcher, but I thought he was on Fulton Street. As far as Barney having another brother, I will be asking his daugther, I talk to her often. |
