Hi Jeff,
I will see if we have any from WLYC.
Hi Neighbor!
Jeff, I was just a youngster who used to watch the Red Sox games (Curt Gowdy, Bob Murphy) and I think the Atlantic gas
guy was Bill Coleman — then, there was your mom. I just loved her. My mother and I always tried to sound like her when she’d say “the best beer every brewed……”
I remember hearing the news of the plane crash — as I recall, you lost both parents. It was so tragic and as a youngster myself, when they said that she left a young son, I
remember thinking “that poor boy has lost his parents.”
I’m afraid I have nothing to offer in the way of memorabilia or stories — just what I’ve told you here. I typed your mom’s name in the search bar, hoping to find something and I did. Then, when I saw your post, I figured I’d answer.
I hope you had a good and happy childhood, Jeff, despite such a terrible and tragic loss. I imagine you had aunts and
uncles or even grandparents who raised you.
