I was born in the 60’s in Youngstown Ohio to a big Italian family. I fondly remember our summer family gatherings at Firestone Park in Columbiana Ohio. And of course pasta was the main dish in addition to burgers and hotdogs. 
One thing that always stood out was my great grandfather, who was a wonderful man, always wore a shirt and tie to these picnics. That’s what he felt comfortable in.

since then I’ve lost a lot of family members over the years and miss them all very much.
