Dear Dale & Laura and Family,

We are so very sorry for your loss. Keeping you in our thoughts and prayers at this very sad time.

Mary & Jim Federico, Chardon

Played with Irv in the Swing Time Big Band and always admired his passion for playing. It was a meaningful part of his life, and we were all fortunate to share the stage with him. My condolences to his family. He was a treasure.

I played with Irv in several renditions of the big band and he was always a professional and very gracious. I will miss him and so will the band. He was the founder of one of Cleveland's Big Bands. And I owe a lot to him for the opportunity to play with the organization.

Irv was class all the way. I played 2nd tenor next to Irv (bari sax) in Swingtime from 1990-1995. Always enjoyed my conversations with Irv at rehearsals and on gigs. One night after a gig he gave me a tour of his company, he knew everyone in the shop by their first name and they affectionately referred to him by his first name.

Cal O'Connor
Swingtime Big Band 90-95
