Ty, seeing the picture of you in the baseball cap brings back many memories of going to the twins with you in ” the old Met” which we thought was out in the country back in 1965. To all your children my prayers and those of Sharon, Pat, John, Dan and Candy are with all of you. Ty, we will meet again…until then, May God hold you and love you. Bob and Sharon Kelly and family
He was a wonderful, fun loving man! My condolences to his family and to Sharon!

Memories indeed! My first memories coming to mind of Ty was his acting in the Junior or Senior Class play “The Sunshine Twins”. The year I can’t nail down, but it may have been ’45 or ’46. F.L. old timers are and have been most precious !
