My first job out of high school was at Knapp Shoe around 40 years ago. After being there alittle while, I was offered a promotion as Irwin's Secretary. What a wonderful, kind and understanding man he was! He had such a great love and pride in his family. He took me and his young assistant under his wing and taught us how to go from "youngsters" to young women in the working world. Neither of us were prepared for the future, but he did his best to bring out the best in us. My deepest sympathy to you all ~ Irwin was a wonderful man. I hope his retirement years made him happy, as he deserved them.
