This is where it all started. The "Condura's Jazz Band" from the 1920's, is my grandpa Joe's, he's the drummer. He was a street wize Italian. The second picture is of both sets of grand parents,I'm sure they were making a deal. The couple standing on the steps are my mothers parents Joe and Conchetta. The grandparent to live the longest is grandma Della, in my chair.

My father Justin, amazing he can smile, at his 50th anniversary. Both mom and dad look the same as they did 50 years ago at their wedding, yeah right. He's at least 4 inches shorter.

Clarence and Laura Silva are my mother and father-in-law and these are from their wedding.

Irene and I got married August 25th 1973, and the second time we cleaned up was at Laura's ring dance in 1996.

My wife Irene and our children Laura at her graduation from University of Richmond and Eve receiving her diploma from the State University of NY at New Paltz

My daughter Laura has always wanted to be a doctor.

Eve is the artist like me, and yes she would draw on the walls.Likes getting her picture taken with boys, Mark79, Pat96, Jay 2002

Ray is my brother and these pictures are of his Wife MaryJane with their daughters Kim, Alysa and Sam and son Billy (shown as a stick figure until I get his picture)

The Bells are Linda, Bill Pat and Michael. I'm starting with Michael, because he's photogenic.
