Editor’s Note: Tony Bowe set the birthday party in motion, and earlier had been the first to encourage a more ambitious attempt at a website broadly of interest to my extended family. He and his wife Nancy arrived early from Brooklyn and helped Charley and June Bowe in putting a festive touch on the space. Tony’s generous remarks reminded me of Frank Lynch gathering the cousins together for a doubles match at the Mid-Town Tennis Club in the mid-1970s.
