To my fishing buddy! Well, you got the two-fer fish in this life and will get the three-fer in the next life. Skip the kelp-fish except for a laugh!

Red taught welding at the Pipefitters' school and was the best. He would literally take your hand while you were 'trying to weld' and guide you to the correct procedure. I don't think I would ever learned without his guidance. Red's work ethic was also an inspiration to all of his students, including myself. He even came out of retirement to instruct laid off Pipefitters so they could be employed more and it worked for a great number. Red can take credit for thousands of welds that members made with his instruction. Thank you Red, you will never be forgotten. Jack and Diane Bresser
