Proud to write this about Mayor Menino. Menino will always remain an unstoppable and larger-than-life presence. When his friend and colleague in the administration, Albert Junior Lombardi, succumbed to cancer, the mayor delivered his eulogy in East Boston. This self-proclaimed non-orator relayed how Lombardi’s family had decided to bury the deceased with his cellphone. When he heard this the first time, he remembered, he told Lombardi’s wife, just make sure there are batteries in it. That phone might ring. He finished his remarks: Call me, Junior. I love you. I know there are a lot of people in Boston who wish they could call the mayor right now and tell him they love him. bostonglobe/opinion/2014/10/30/boston-was-witness-tom-menino-unbreakable-drive/hR3ABgKG2dgI9p7wjb9oNO/story.html
