Francie and family, my deepest sympathy goes out to you all at this sad time. I remember Uncle Milt from the times you all used to come visit and stay with Nanny-Kathleen, and remember his laugh most of all. I know its been forever since we've seen all of you but know that we share in your grief and love you all. Now Nanny-Kathleen and her little brother are together again and looking over all of us. Love Gwen (Gloria's daughter)
