Memories of Florida

When I think of my favorite lifetime memories what tops the list are the vacations spent with the Guida's in Florida.  Richard, Louis Jr and I felt like adventurer hunters running around the large Carillon Hotel.  Mr. Guida and my father were like two boys when they were together. They shared a close bond, like brothers.  They would walk or lay by the pool and talk while Mrs. Guida and my mother would plan activities for the families.  Dolphins; Bush Gardens; shuffleboard; pink flamingos; presidential rallies and so much more. 

At night there were adult shows and Mr. Guida and my father always looked so handsome in their suits escorting their beautiful wives in long dresses.  Mr. Guida had a calming even toned way about him that always made me feel so comfortable and important.  He actually would listen to my little girl musings. 

Our early childhood forms us into the adults we become and Mr. Guida had an enormous positive influence on me.  I am thankful for this and feel blessed to have known such a wonderful man.
