Another Tolleston Raider gone to heaven.... I’m sure my Dad (John Pupillo) is sippin some wine with Elliot and my Mom (Janet Pupillo) is with Barb telling them both not to drink too much ! Knowing those two, they didn’t listen ! Happy I got to be friends with Rick and realize our parents all knew one another. Still friends with Rick I’m happy to say. I just want to share this with your family, after my Mom died in 2010, your sweet Mom would call me & send me cards to let me know I wasn’t alone and how much she cared. That still touches my heart. I’m so very sorry your loss... keeping you in my prayers ?

We were surprised and very sad to learn of El's passing. Our friendship goes a long way back. Barb and El were responsible for Bud and I getting together - 45 years ago - all attending HS reunion together. Have many happy memories of time shared with Barb and El. Wish those days could have continued. We'll miss him. Doreen and Bud Guba
