I first met Steve when he came in to buy paint, he was at Exide at the time. I always looked forward to seeing him amd chating with him, In 1993 I was at Borispil airport Ukraine when I hear someone call my name, I recognized the voice but shouted where are you a hand shot up, it was good to see someone from home. Steve and I had a good time on the trip home, Sorry to read of his passing. condolences to the family. Vichnaya Pamyiat! Ihor Puhacz, Macungie, Raisa' dad.

Petrowsky Family,

So sorry to hear about Mr Petrowsky's passing. I do remember him being the joker of all of our dad's. He always had a joke for every occasion. Now all of our dad's are all together again. He will be missed. My thoughts and prayers are with you all at this difficult time. With sincere condolences and my sympathy.

So sorry to hear of your fathers passing. I always remember when he would call for you on the phone at the Water Shed. He asked for you the same way every single time!! He was always so nice. My condolences to you and your family.
