Hi Heather,
I grew up in Beachwood in the 40s and 50s. My dad was the Beachwood Barber, Joe Fuccile, and was a member of the fire department. I have a couple of pictures that I sent to Erik Weber and he sent along to Roger at the fire dept. I know that your grandfather is in one of them and I’d be happy to send them along to you if you’d like. I certainly remember your grandparents. Just let me know.
Regards,
Joan Fuccile Fitzpatrick
