Dear Melissa Cheung,
I noticed in my second paragraph of my request I didn’t spellcheck it should say 10 Roosevelt Pl. in Montclair your response and he said that there is no such place as Roseville place( which I mistakenly dictated)
Please resubmit this as 10 Roosevelt Pl. in Montclair apartment number 43 Steven Leavitt deceased on or about 7 February 2022

Yours sincerely,

Joe Sgroi
