Default R.I.P. Phil Rizzuto

Phil moved to his long-time home near us in 1947. He was about 30 years old then....I was 8 years old.
He would drive down our street on his way to Yankee Stadium. My neighbor, Johnny, and I always knew
when he was approaching, as he was the only one in the neighborhood that would drive unusual cars.
We would alert each other...."here comes Phil"....when we saw this little, two-seater Nash Metropolitan
coming down our street, Concord Place.

I have many more stories about "the Scooter"....but, I'll save them for another time.
