I was a friend of Edward Leo from Everett Massachusetts he lives right down the street from me. The last few years my brother, Richard, and I would meet with Edward and with another friend AngieBoyand then for the next hour or so talk about past experiences. We would go for breakfast and then for the next hour or so talk about past experiences. I, Robert deGaravilla, want to express my sympathies to Edward’s family.
