With deepest sympathy. Mr. Handy you were the best. You provided a safe place for us kids in Glasgow to hang out. The memories that we all have from the skating rink will forever be. There are no telling how many parents you called over the years but we are all better adults now because of it. Those all night skate/dance parties were so much fun. Friday night skates along with Saturday night and Sunday afternoons, yep. that's where my money went. Rest in Peace! praying for peace for the family...
