Coming Home

Our family grew up having Louie as a fourth brother to our other three:  Gerard, David, Paul...and Louie.  I still remember all of them "studio wrestling" on our livingroom floor, trying to make sure no furniture was destroyed.

When I went away to college, no holiday return to Clearfield was complete without a visit to the Clearfield Bowling Lanes where Mr Petrone would welcome us like his own children.  Over the years, our family expanded as wives and a husband were added to the mix.  Then our own children came along.  But no holiday return to Clearfield was complete without that evening at the bowling alley, and the warm welcome from Dominic.  He remembered every one's name as the family expanded and what they were about, his impish smile was always so warm.  He never had a bad word to say about anyone--tho, I could have given him a few about my brothers!

I am so grateful that his gentle spirit was part of my life. May his eternal homecoming be as warm as those he showered upon us.
