Amos Daniel Weiss and Bert Harold Carson were young long before the time of political correctness. Amos or Dan as he preferred was the son of the town drunk, whose parents had cast him from their home when he married a Gentile. Bert was the son of an ice cream maker, whose boss had committed suicide in the crash of 1929. The Carson family was middle-class protestant. Both were feisty and small of stature- determined to make for themselves- Dan as a nationally known restaurateur, Bert as a character actor. They both were scouts under the beloved Troop masters Ryan McMahon, whose family were catholic. Bert and Dan took troop masters McMahons earnest advise to aspire to the values of their oath- to honor Go, to be kind, loyal, brave and honest, very seriously because he lived these values everyday with humor and his wifes brusque, but loving assistance.
