Rose,

Tough Job you have! Paul Ferris' s obituary read visiting hours will be conducted at the William Carafa & Son Home for funerals, 389 Washington Ave., Chelsea, Massachusetts today January 11th from 6:00 o 8:00 PM.

Rose, while I haven't seen Paul in over 50 years after graduation, he comes out of our old neighborhood on Olive-Page Street.

I remember him vividly as a boy growing up (9-12) along with his older brother in our neighborhood, but never made contact with him in our circle of friends during our high school years. Truly our lost, because our friends speak well of him.

It was a tough week for deaths, as I knew at least 6 people including neighbors of mine like Paul from our past! Please reply!

 

Billy

Email just received from Joanne Nardone!

Hi Rose,

I just received my copy of the Revere Journal and read the obituaries. Joseph Quagenti, aged 66, passed away. I remember him from high school. He is being waked today from 4-8pm at Buonfiglio's on Revere Street. The funeral is Thursday at 10 from the funeral home. The mass is at 11 from St. Anthony's.

Also, today I read that Mr. Peter Sarno passed away as well. He was principal at the Paul Revere School.Visiting hours are 3-7 Thursday at Porcella's in Beachmont. Sorry to bring this sad news, but I thought that you would want to know. Take care and God bless.

Love,

Joanne
