My mom has been friends with George and Linda and Howdy- Do- DI and Annette and
(Gordan and Susan -Tom (and the late Jill) who didn't come last night) for 50 years. Linda and my mom went to high school together. They were all friends during my moms first marriage and then it continued on for her second. One of the things I love about getting together with them is Glen or Howdy-do-di. My mom gave him a wedding present of T.V. tray back in the 60's. He still thanks her for them every time we see
them. Now he teases Anthony about the lava lamp they gave him for his wedding present. "Let you Lava Lamp Shine before
men that may may see your good works". All of them are Aunt's and Uncle's to us. All of them have been there for all the major events in my life. They were always so much fun with my dad. They really make us laugh out loud. My dad and the guys formed a singing group where they sang into drinking glasses and the "The Glass Holes" was born. We met at the Italian Village which has been around for longer than I've been on this earth.
http://italianvillageslc.com/ It has been a family favorite for decades. It is not my favorite but my mom and Scott adore the veal, my dad would crave the salad dressing and have us buy and drive it to St. George by the gallons. I usually get either
the tortellini or chicken Parmesan. Anthony loves the pizza and manicotti. It was wonderful to talk about my dad and all the funny situations they have all been in over the years. We were so loud and laughing so much I think the rest of the patrons cheered when we left the restaurant. Linda has truly been a life saver for our family time and time again. Salina and I were laughing so hard I think garlic bread came out my nose. Scott laughed so hard he was crying. It is great to laugh loud and long. I think my dad must have made a brief appearance, he really did do that when he died to Glen. It made my dad feel so close being with his friends and laughing about life. Friends make life worth living, I love my parents friends.
