Even though Frank Haddad and Lawrence Detroy were different, they were also a lot alike. You had one man who was educated book-wise, and one who was not. Both of them came from the same era and the same type of upbringing in the Haymarket neighborhood, one Irish and the other Lebanese. They were nine years apart in age, to the day; both were born on June 23rd. They loved their families above all, and they believed in loyalty.
The saying, "You hold the lantern while I dig the grave," was true of their friendship. People were fascinated by how these two men really appreciated one another. It didn't matter which one was in trouble or had problems, they stood for one another. That was an unspoken bond between them.
They lived separate lives, but they were similar in their outlook that nobody was too big or too little for them. There might be a person everybody else thought was a loser or useless, but Lawrence and Frank would see some little thread of goodness in this person and befriend them. It was their nature. It showed their character. These guys were legendary for the little things they did for so many people.
