=================================
Hi Tom:
We have never met but I really enjoyed your web site and all that fun history about my hometown! My mother and father were born in Trenton too. Dad was a city fireman and so was my uncle, Captain Art Stinger, Engine 10.I grew up with lots of great police and firemen who use to catch me in between the baseball season. (I had the good fortune to pitch and play baseball for the American Legion team the Trenton Schroths Post 93 way back in the 50’s under Coach Kelly Polumbo.) I am 71 now, live in Stewartsville NJ and retired from corporate life but work every day as a landscape painter exhibiting and selling my paintings. Please visit my web site http://www.stingerfineart.com if you are interested. Thanks for giving me the opportunity to re-visit Trenton’s good old days while I’m taking a break from my painting!

Best regards, John
Ps -please add me to your email list!
