Memorials

I first met Stephen many years ago while working for CVS and then I started working at Papa Gino's,Stephen used to come in a few times a week to get food, what a very nice man he was,I did not see him much during the Pandemic as I am sure there was a reason why, I picked up a conversation with him at Big Y and let him know I haven't seen him around and he said he was just getting back into going places. I will always remember him.
