    Also ask her if she stays in touch with Linda Cuba Beatrice De Sapio or Cathy Galatelli

    You got it... I'm going to email a picture of her - that is EXACTLY
    DOLORES.... Bright smile - like a cherub. My dad loved her -
    he would sing a song to her (something from the 40's, I think)
    "How I loved the kisses of Dolores" - so I always sing to her now.
    We've been friends for 52 years, since kids - like Rosalie.

    I'm trying to eavesdrop on my husband. He's telling his friend
    about his heart - want to hear if he didn't tell me something.
    Does that make sense?

So I said I have about 200- left ....so give me as many as you can ........I think 17 st had a block party for 15 weeks.....LMAO
