I haven't heard. This is the last pic I saw after it was painted. Again, from their Facebook page. I love that truck. The new one should have had a white roof down to the top of the doors. It's got to much red, but still a sharp looking rig..
Tarrytown, Riverside Hose Co #4. 65 Seagrave. Absolutely love this truck. My father was a member there and I loved climbing all over that truck as a kid. They're in the process of restoring this truck. Got this pic from their Facebook page.

This has affected me big time. I've gotten so depressed over this. Not a day goes by that I don't think of Anthony, and look at his pictures. He was my oldest friend, and pretty much the first friend I ever had. We have a Facebook memorial group for him with a bunch of pictures and I'm on there many times a day. Here's a link below if anyone cares to join the group. His family wanted it private, so just send a request and we'll add you. In Loving Memory of Anthony J. Ruggiero Jr. R.I.P. Anthony J. Ruggiero Jr. and John P. Kelly.
