We had to sit in the front room because they haven't opened the back room for the evening. The front room is prettier, but much louder. Though, we did manage to keep up a lively conversation by adding to the volume of the room. Nobody else except for Catherine and I had been to Mercato before. Ron and Ellen live in Kent, Ct (for the summers), and Portia and Jared live in Catskill. It seemed like a reasonable distance for everybody as a place to eat. The food was basically good. I had the Orecchiette special, which tasted very good except for the sausage, either because it had gristle in it or because the casing was much too touch made it unpleasant to eat.]]> After the funeral, there was a reception at Tom and Joyce's house.

We were on a plane taxiing in at JFK on our way home from Sweden. I received a text from Douglas Degges saying how sorry he was to hear about Tom's death. It was like getting hit in the head. We picked up Diane Neumaja at the bus station in New Paltz on the way to the cemetery. Bob Mangold and Sylvia Plimack Mangold followed us in their car. We met up with them at a gas station in New Paltz. As we neared where the cemetery was supposed to be, we couldn't find it. It turned out Joyce (Robins) had accidentally given us a slightly different address. I started to knock on doors to ask for directions. It was hard to find anyone at home. At a house that turned out to be empty, I slipped, trying to step up on a porch (I didn't see any steps) and fell and rolled. Everyone watching thought the roll was on purpose because it looked like how you were told to fall. I hurt my ribs, which I still feel now that it is a few weeks later. A man in a gas station gave us the final correct directions to the cemetery. Joyce asked if I would be one of the pallbearers. I said sure and was hoping my fall wouldn't make it too difficult. It didn't. See the previous three entries.]]> Tom died on May 9, 2019. We were on a plane taxiing in at JFK on our way home from Sweden.
