Thanks for your most interesti...Dear Deacon Bill -<br /><br />Thanks for your most interesting post. I have a small connection with Mr. Sinatra. My grandfather, John Murphy of Jersey City, had a very close friend - Ms. Lillian Smith (who lived to 102!) Ms. Smith was Dolly Sinatra's (Frank's mom) maid of honor. From my conversations with Lilly, I found out that Mr Sinatra was quite a generous man - especially with religious nuns who resided in Jersey City and Hoboken - keeping them above water with gifts of money and cars. <br /><br />God bless you and your ministry!<br /><br />Best regards,<br />Deacon BrianBrianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13638636675762161557noreply@blogger.com
