Chris & Frank Christmas 1987

This is the full version of the above Christmas 86: Christmas 86
The LAST Christmas at 37 Hopper Street. My mother died Oct' 88. By Sept.'91 my father sold the house that was the "family's," home built in the '40's, by my grandfather, my mother's father, Loreto Cedrone. Long gone now were the food, wine, laughter & song. Well, maybe the wine was still there.
This would be the last Christmas in the home that once "housed," so many memories.
The video description details the rest.
