This was the biggest night of the year for my husband Mike. This was the day he left work early from Brooklyn to be home to take the kids trick or treats.

After dinner, we didn’t give up. Mike would take the kids in the station wagon and drive them to the spooky houses to get more candy. No one came home until those bags were filled.

The tradition would have continued with his grandkids if not for Covid, but his daughters will always remember those nights.
