My friend and mentor. He taught me everything about graphic arts. At the time at Allied Industries on Fourth Ave., Pittsburgh I didn´t understand nor appreciate all that he did to guide me and teach me how to "be the best in the city". He was a blast to hang out with after work at all the downtown bars. Both he and Cora!
