Mrs. Provenzale....I never could call her Columbia, was my mother's best friend and neighbor when they lived next door to each other in Waldwick, NJ. Debbie, her daughter and I were born the same year and became friends because of our parents, and I think stayed friends because of our parents. My parents, Dave and Jean Pyper had many FUN times together with Len and Columbia Provenzale even though we moved from there over 50 years ago. The stories they would tell me, while laughing, of their travels in a motor home, cruise ship, or where ever the wind would blow and they would meet up... were memories I treasure to this day and aspire to create in my life. Mr. and Mrs. Provenzale are "salt of the earth" type of people and I will miss and remember Mrs. Provenzale with such fondness all the days of my life.
