Mr. Lopez....I lived on Ocean Parkway (bet Beverly/Church) till about 10 years ago when I moved up to Albany. I'm a little younger than you (42), but love reading your site since it brings back wonderful memories....
I have to ask who is Mario? the only Mario I know - owned Cow Tree on Church Ave and smoked cigars before he turned from owning that little store to driving a small Command bus - shuttling folks back and forth to the city.
Please enjoy all our stories of what it was like growing up in Kensington and Windsor Terrace in a time long forgotten. And always remember the streets that raised and taught you well.
