You Just Can Not Make This Up

In 1983 a friend of ours had a private sale of his things.  He was trying to raise money for medication. We purchased his pasta maker and gave him extra cash. He said that he would come over and show us his favorite pasta recipe. I remember we had a fun night making past. His recipe was. In a large frying pan add ½ stick butter lots of olive oil. Sauté a diced onion and garlic. Then ad a can of anchovies in oil.  Cook until the anchovies have dissolved. Then add cooked pasta. A couple months later he passed away due to AIDS. His family would not claim the body. A group of us came together and raised the $85.00 for cremation. We never knew what happened to the ashes. Every time we make this pasta, we think of Rodger.
