I remember watching that t-bird at U.S. 30 many times. I worked with him at Allis Chalmers in the gear cutting department. He was a quiet, but funny guy. Sorry to hear of his passing.

My sympathies goes out to the Pudlo family. I won't forget the good times we had growing on Cameron St. Repairing our cars in his garage after school (Tech).
He was a good PAL..
