Rip Torn 1931-2019

Torn and his wife Geraldine Page lived up the block from me in Chelsea in the late 60's and yes its true the name on their bell said Torn/Page. I never saw him, but I would see Geraldine in our neighborhood A&P on 8th ave pushing her wagon full of beer through the aisles wearing a housecoat and a kerchief around her head. The Clerks calling out to her Hi Gerry, she would respond Hi girls. I stood star struck at the check out counter.
