Mr. "D" was a very important part of my life. Troop 61 was a very big part of growing up.
As an adult , I can appreciate all the time and self sacrifice he gave to the boys in the troop. He was a very positive role model for us all. Because of the troop, I have life long friends. I also have knowledge and wisdom that I hope I am passing on to my own boys as they grow up. I would like to thank Mrs. Declemente for sharing her husband with all of us over the years.
May god bless him.
With sympathy,
Steve Ricci
