allison muenzer We invited Mom and Dad to come and join us for dinner one night - we were staying at a campground on the Neck. Simon was very excited to be making lobster. My dad insisted that good lobster could not be cooked without ocean water - salted water would not do. So, the two of them took a bucket down to the wharf and Simon hung the bucket outside the car window the whole drive home!

Wanted to send you a few stories that epitomised Mr. Muenzer (it was never Herman) for me – and better I send to you then your stupid brother…with y...
