I remember when Ira took pictures for my family. He took many wonderful pictures and knew my mother who worked at the hospital.
He was such a quiet man and a wonderful photographer.I often pass by the little house off 6th and MacVicar where he took the pictures and remember him...now we know he is at peace..... and pray strength and peace for his family.
