They were Brooklyn kids, can you tell? Sweet and tough all at once.
(& Yes, we all still miss the big galoot in the photo, & we miss him a lot.)
They were in their early 20s when this one was taken, & they’re sitting on the stoop of a family home on Jerome Street, somewhere near Pitkin Avenue.




That’s fantastic. So great you guys have a good relationship, too. Family is really an important thing.
A birthday wish to your mom. I know where Jerome Street is. A Brooklyn kid here.
Two miles from where I grew up. Pitkin Av. Ozone Park, Queens.
