I am so sorry to hear of your loss. ‘Mr. C’ was one of my favorite people growing up in Smithtown. I have fond memories of everyone piled up on the couches in the den watching tv, and I can hear him laughing still. Mrs. C and family you are in my prayers. Im sure my Dad met him at the gate and they are arguing politics right now. Love to all of you, Priscilla Haynes and family
