out quite nice. Click on the picture and fill your

See the old homestead in the distance, was a great place to live.
Hi Mack: Revere Avenue still looks the same as it did in the 1930s, when we spent most of our time on the only paved steet in Villa Park. There was a large vacant lot on the corner of Quinton and Liberty that we used as a baseball field. We hung out on the corner of Revere and Roebling and Sparky the cop on the beat, was among our good friends. We also played basketball in a lot on the corner of Columbus and Roebling. The Laurentis had a butcher store across the street. Larry Laurenti ended up owning a few Shop-Rite super markets in the area. They really were happy days, in spite of the depression. Best regards.
Hi JoeZ & Ralph:)

always did to me as well, Revere
