"RIP to a beloved cousins from a distant yet cherished time in life. Nestled in the small town on Long Island I remember a childhood surrounded by a loving supportive extended family. I loved going to my cousins house to play with Papo, Ernie, and Greg. It was a simpler time in life where everyone you knew lived within 20 minutes of each other. But then life happened, years passed and although we may have lost touch the love and memories of these years always live within my heart. To all my cousins, I miss you, I love you, and I wish you well. - John Perez ...in closing I would like to share a memory: Way back in the early 70's, decades before it shocked and became fashionable, Papo sported a Mohawk! I remember the commotion and humor it caused, does anyone else remember this?"
