Mrs. Mish & family. I am sorry to hear of Mr. Mish's pasing. I will always remember as a kid hearing him whistle and the music being played from his shop. As I grow older there are things you never forget from your childhood such as the neighborhood you grew up in and Mr. Mish was a part of it. Like a staple. I hope my kids will get the same chance to remember good people in there neighborhood like I did. God bless you all and my sincere condolences.
