a sad day

It is with great sadness today that I report the passing of a dear friend, Nunzio Spano. He succumbed to the coronavirus early yesterday.  He and I became pals on our trips to Cape May with a gaggle of friends and relations.  Pictured here with his lovely wife Donna on our last outing in March, he was quick with a quip or one liner. 

He and I worked for the same trucking company in different eras of its operation.  Nunzio had lots of stories about the place and he sprouted my memories as well.  Our family moved to Toms River NJ in the early eighties to be closer to her family and for the change.  I worked for Maislin Transport till mid decade with they went bankrupt.  His time there was much earlier. 

In life we meet people by chance that we make a connection with.  The reasons are unexplainable but it just happens.  My friendship with him was a profound gift.  I will miss him.

I have nothing else to say today.
Everyone please stay well
all for now
