A wonderful neighbor and a good friend. We will truly miss you Morris. God Bless you.
I’m Bruce Smith that lived across the street. Sorry to hear of Mr. Reidel’s passing. I think of my days on the island often and think of the neighbors and Mr. Reidel often.
Well Moe, if you headed north, I’ll see you soon enough.
