I am sorry to read of your Father's passing. I had the honor of woking with and for him in the Edison. He was the ultimate Gentleman who was loyal and a staunch union man. We called him Slick and he was with his demeanor. He called me cardinal and had nicknames for most of the guys we worked with. He was the best! My sincere condolences to his wonderful Family. May Richard[Slick] Quinn rest in peace. Sincerely, Dick Stanton
