Dear Tom and Family,
I want to say how sorry my whole family is about Harpo. I remember the first time I met him back in 1975 with Beffa at Bob Swifts Air Port hanger for one of the famous cook outs when I first started working at JMH and moved to Stafford.
It was your Dad and Dante that helped break the ice for me with Bob Swift so I could rent the Mattison house for when we got married. Then I bought three new cars in four years from him after we moved in and a couple more after that.(Boy he sure new how to sell cars those cars.)
He surely will be missed by many people he new and met over the years.You and your family are in our thoughts and prayers.

Norma,Tommy, MaryEllen, We are so sorry to hear about Harpo. I will never forget our great golf matches up at Elmcrest and his all ways ribbing of Turk every time he went to hit the ball.He was a special friend and just a great guy. God Bless all of you.
Tommy & Family, Mary Ellen & Family,
So sorry to here of your Dads passing. I know first hand that time does ease the saddness, you just need to think of all the good times you shared with him. You both need to stick together as a family, not only for yourselves but also for your Mom. Our thoughts and prayers are with both you and your families.
Rick, Cindy, Kyle & Cory
MaryEllen and Tommy I am so very sorry to hear about your Dad. I know how you are feeling right now, you are in our thoughts and prayers. Look at it this way Turk has his card and golf partner back.
Dear Norma, Tommy and MaryEllen and family, my deepest sympathies to you all. I can imagine it was a long and arduous time for all of you, but now the suffering is over and peace will come in time. Now it is time to celebrate Al's life and accomplishments. As I thought of all you went through, a smile started to come upon my face - and do you know why? I started to think about Al and Ron together again. Together, feeling well. Did God know what he was doing when he called them home? Does he know what he is in for? Imagine this - Al and Ron approach the pearly gates. St. Peter greets them. Al says to Ron "Why is he asking all these questions?" Ron: "Darn if I know." Al: "I think we could do a better job, don't you?" "Ya," say Ron. "You know what? You could ask the questions and open the gates and I could open a concession stand and sell hamburgs and hotdogs. We could charge an admission fee. How much profit do you think we can make?" Al: "Let's try it." Al: "Do you want to play a round of golf?" Ron: "I haven't played in years." Al: "That doesn't matter you never played that well anyway." Ron: "What do you mean?" Al: You could drive them, but you couldn't putt a darn!" Ron: "You don't know what your talking about." And on and on it goes. Enjoying each others company and joking with one another as old friends alway do.
Paolini Family,
I am going to miss my backyard over the fence Wales neighbor. We had many lively conversations over the years.He would always listen and try to help when he could.It will never be the same.
He was one of a kind. Some people you give a special place in your heart to.He has a place in my heart.I hope he and my husband Tom are at peace and will be watching over us all.
"You know what I mean a little bit"
Tommy-
