I new Ziggy all through my college years at BGSU. We were mates years after, travelled with him to Watkins Glen, my children were in a Cedar Point commercial he directed. Last I saw Zig he was walking with two crutches but always that Zig personality, we had lunch, reminiscing over ole photos of Joe, BG, theater, Mel, music, BG, California all the things he loved. I´ve missed you these past years my friend. Be well, Go Well Ziggy. I will miss you, love and hugs Christi

I worked with Zig at Bluebird, Inc. commercial production company on Melrose in Beverly Hills. I haven't seen him in many years but spoke with him shortly after he moved to Ohio. Strange how he crossed my mind today and I thought I'd look him up. . .sad to find out he passed. We always had so much fun together.
