I guess my favorite story is about a story Uncle Dino told me. Apparently, my dad, Monty Bilyue and he were friends before they married sisters,  Edye and my mom, Jeanne Andre. Back in their young years they were friends with and built a recording studio for Frank Zappa! True or not, it was a believable story since my dad's father was a radio station builder throughout the southwest.

Well Dino and my husband Del Daugherty have been friends for years! Some of the storys they told of their younger days! Dino was there for me when my husband passed him and I became good friends on  FB. He kept  a smile on my face! I am very lucky to know Dino and Edye! I will pick a special song for you Dino I know you and Del are together now!

My Grandpa York always could make me laugh.  He had the driest comedy ever but he let us know he truly cared about us. I didn't get to spend a whole lot of time with him through the years but he made it known that he loved his family and grandchildren and even his great grandchildren unconditionally. I love you Grandpa York and miss you dearly. I will always remember drinking coffee with you in the morning time on orchard lane. 

Dino and his family were a big part of our life growing up on Orchard Lane. I recall so many Dino stories, from motorcycles (Moto Guzi?) to CB radios, to driving to/from the beach. I also recall a time I ran in to him at Super Cuts, and he had his pony tail cut off!! Ohhhh, and the opportunity to set trackside at Ontario Motor Speedway during motorcycle races. Never forget that!
Thinking of you guys a lot lately, I just always come up short for words. Love all of you guys! Remember the good times!
