(Let me tell you a story a true story about 2 scrawny kids growing up in LK. Parsippany)... (Dedicated to my big brother Glenn (STYX) Harbula)... I remember when my parents moved us from Nutley N.J. to 23 Eldora road LK. Parsippany the summer before my 5th birthday..That summer & coming year it started a bond & history between the kids & parents from around the lake area...Familys like the Devines,Henrys,Butlers,Baxters,Mcnivens,Bells and of course the Bauers,Beatrices,Purzickis,Duphineys,Fioritos,Mattalianos,Weders and the (Harbulas)... Growing up i new what it was like to have a big sister my sister Sharon and at an early age what is was like to have a big brother...I new that Glenn was someone who i looked up to very easily, from his beliefs down to his character...Not just from a young age but through out my life...Growing up STYX was the leader , he lead by example...When we talked we would always bring up to each other (Hey STYX) (Hey MAZZ) remember when? and i would always reply ya (STYX) i remember... Family man - how from being a husband/friend to Beth & father to the 4 Ks - Katie,Keith,Keven & Kenny...and how knowing then if and when i got married i wanted to be the best husband/friend and best father to my kids...How he loved talking about his family i could sense it from Virginia to Florida over the phone.... Humility - when i believe back in 2001 the doctors finally found out his condition M.S... I was asking questions about something i had know idea about or what it meant to have M.S... What next? But typical (STYX) said this (You know MAZZ?) what (STYX)... (WHAT DO YOU DO WHEN YOUR DEALT A BUNCH OF LEMONS? I dont know what? (YOU MAKE LEMONADE)...and then came his famous laugh...He laughed.... In 1979 my father died 2 days before my 16th birthday my sophomore yr in high school...2 people 1 my cousin/godmother Linda & Glenn said this (maybe if you talk about it / it would help) well i talked about it and it helped.... JOHN 14 - I believe goes... (1) Let not your Heart Be Troubled : yee believe in God believe in me... (2) In my Fathers House there are many mansions , if it were not so , I would have told (YOU) : I go and prepare a place for (YOU)... (3) AND if I go and prepare a place for (YOU) , I will come again and receive (YOU) unto my self , that where I am , there may (YOU) be also... THANK YOU FOR SHOWING ME THE WAY (YOUR LITTLE BROTHER MAZZ)
