Some of my best memories of Uncle Riley are the ones I spent with you at your apartment .Talking and laughing just hanging out.
We (my wife & I ) were very sad to see you leave Erie but understood the reason why.
Holidays will not be the same at our house without you.Always at the table sharing your life stories with us.
We will miss fixing you a plate to go (especially desserts).Walking you down the drive to your car saying .LUV YA see ya later.
We'll see ya later on the other side !!!!!!!


R.I.P. Your nephew & wife

My Uncle Riley would be on the highway so much, I would call him the fireman
of the road, but also asked if he would pick me up on the way if I was nearby.
Oh what a ride it would be!!! but i never stopped going for a long time.
It was always a joy being around my Uncle. We had great fellowship with that
unforgetable laugh!!! R I P Uncle Riley( Betty Peacock)

My memory of my granddad was one summer me and my sister brandi went to stay with him for about a week in Erie PA. Driving with this man around town was comedy. Me and Brandi would be cracking up in the backseat because it was like having whiplash. I never drove with someone that jerked a car as much as he did it! Love you Granddad! RIP.

I will always remember out trip to Niagra Falls Canada. I was finally 18 yrs old, so Grandad thought it was the perfect opportunity to introduce me to the casino. We had a great time, and this trip was the first time I had ever heard the song" Love Machine" by the Miracles. I never laughed so hard at my grandfather in all my life. I can still hear him singing, shaking his fist, speeding down the highway!!! Love you always Grandad!!!

I always wondered why I liked sardines
So much until my mother (Ella Lewis), granddad's youngest daughter told me
That I use to sit on granddad's lap and we use to eat sardines out of a can and drink hudephol
Beer. No I was not if drinking age at but I was told I would fight and scream until I
Received a sip of beer. To this very day I probably have the lowest alcohol tolerance in the family.
