It's a sad weekend for the DeSanto clan as mom and pop DeSanto lost their closest friend of many decades, Pat, do a long illness. Luckily, Irene and I got to see her last weekend before things reached the end. We've lost a real kick ass and constant presence in our lives and our best goes to her kids and grandkids and boyfriend. Our families spent many a christmas eve together and I travelled the world with them for a lot of my youth. Sad. RIP.
