I met Livia and Miklos many years ago when they were into renovating a big old house in the downtown area. We became friends and had a few enjoyable evenings together. I have often thought about them and how they are doing. Livia was such a wonderful woman. Miklos and family, my most sincere condolences to all. - Posted by: Mike Love (old aquaintance (plumber)) on: Apr 11, 2015
