David L. Covill.............In Loving Memory



On September 5 2008 Our loved and respected friend Dave Covill left this life to join his beloved Barbara, Better known to us Sansone kids as Mr and Mrs Covill, This wonderful man was not only a mentor,friend,voice of reason many times in my life.Mr Covill and Mrs Covill are survived by there two wonderful children,Dave Jr and Susie of whom we have known and loved since we were all young kids.I can go on and write a book about the wonderful times spent with Mr Covill and the great times and stories we shared.Many years of working together on the Jade run.David Covill was also a Retired Rosemont Police Lieutenant for over 25 years. Along with playing Santa at our annual Christmas Eve dinners,Dave was always anxious to play the part as he loved our children as they were his own, He also was the person who coined my late daughter Dawns nickname as the Peanut,So many great memories of such a great man.But I should say Great memories of both Mr and Mrs Covill who both were very inspiration to all of us Sansone's, They were that rare friend that only a few of us have the opportunity to meet in our life time.So also knowing that they are with our Dawn makes my heart a whole lot happier.So to you my most respected friend Mr Covill I bid a prayer for you as you touched my life even more than you could have known.From my Family, my children and all who had the pleasure to know you and your wonderful wife Barbara,We thank you for the honor of loving us the way you did Thank you, I WILL MISS YOU!! and may God Bless you Both..............Michael S.


Perhaps they are not
stars in the sky,
but rather openings
where our loved ones
shine down
to let us know they
are happy.

Dreaming of a Gene and Judes

GENE and JUDES

Here in Arizona for Labor Day and thinking of home and a Hot dog!! lol

The greatest hot dog stand
in the world serves neither hamburgers, nor polish sausage, nor grilled chicken sandwiches. There is no grill, no char-broiler, no spinning mound of gyros. At the greatest hot dog stand they only need buckets of simmering water for dogs, steamers for steaming buns and Supreme tamales and ever bubbling vats of oil for the fresh cut fries.

You can see the greatest hot dog from far up the street. Beecause the greatest hot dog stand is all glass and harsh flouresant lights and stands as a beacon for all who are hungry. If you see a line, you know it will move fast.

The greatest hot dog stand follows few of the rules laid out by the experts. Their buns are poppy-seedless. They offer few condiments beyond mustard (no ketchup on site). They do not dust their dog with celary salt. Yes, it is a Vienna sausage, but a skinnyish one at that. You really need to eat more than one at the greatest hot dog stand in the world, and many of the customers do (Sample customer, "I'll take seven hot dogs and an [extra] order of fries).

The cooks at the greatest hot dog stand in the world occupy their time in between orders by thrusting fresh idaho potatos through a machine that converts them into perfect sized french fries. These amazing sticks of pure pototo get tossed on top of each offering so that if you want to eat them inside your hot dog bun, well you can and maybe should.

The greatest hot dog stand in the world is a throwback to a world when people ate hot dogs. A throwback to a time when a great stand could keep their buns steamed just right, and their red hots, hot but not limp. So a Gene and Jude hot dog snaps right back at you. Interactive eating. With a side of hot fries, you will know you are at the greatest hot dog stand in the world.
