I met Cornell when I was 21 and we both were working at Mt Airy Lodge we both stayed in their housing and he would bring me dinner. Later on in life unbeknownst to me he would become my son´s Uncle. Although I have not spoke to him in many years he will always be remembered and never forgotten. RIP Family!!
