It was 10 years ago that we lost driver John "Flip" Filipowicz and his son who both died in hurricane Sandy.

I lost almost everything I owned but at least I'm still here to tell about it. I didn't know John well but R.I.P. and condolences to his family.
I am patient with stupidity, but not with those who are proud of it.

LMAO

Thanks Buzz ! John was a marine ,correction office and school bus driver who lost his life on that dreadful day  ( along with one of his sons ) and a all around good guy he's not forgotten 🇺🇸🙏🏻

Really a shame. What are the odds of going that way. Terrible.

I hesitate to post links to S.I. Advance articles because a lot of times if you don't have an account you can't read them, but here's an article about the family donating $10,000 to St. Charles for those who do.
