I met Mickey while attending the same high school in 1956

We were best of friends
And Bill and I met her and Frank while we were all still single in a bar down the Jersey shore
Thru many years of friendship remembering Halloween nights when trick or treating with all our kids to pool days and other get together
You will be missed Frank but Mickey will carry on with her close family near by
