With a Heavy...Heavy Heart, we have to say goodbye to the lead-singer and songwriter of the  Doo Wop group, The Del Reys: Mr. Bobby Benedict, my Dad - your fellow band member -  (Jimmy Markey) took this one hard. But, my Dad and I know that; You- Mr. Benedict, Lou Ibanez and my other Uncle, Carmine Izzo, are up there in heaven, sitting on cloud, harmonizing together once again. I only was lucky enough to meet you once, but your name was a fixture in our home. And the record that you and Del Reys made back in 1959, is proudly displayed on my shelf, And, I listen to it often. Rest in peace Bobby Benedict. My Dad misses you.
