    God bless you, Cousin Ernie. You were so devoted to my mom, Florence, who you lovingly called Fla. I so remember the Saturday night card games that moved between your house and my mom and dad’s….Rummy Cup! You are at peace now. I hope you have an endless supply of cupcakes that you loved so much from Dunkin’ Donut!
