NOTE : Our Ruggieri Family twin brother and sister , Stephen and Rita , were born at Saint Joseph's Hospital in Providence , Rhode Island on August 28, 1954 and were kept there a few days longer because of Hurricane Carol. We believe that the experience sharpened for later life their fine social skills .
