Diane & Family: I never had the pleasure to work with Mr. Tischer at St. Joseph's but did attend his retirement party! What a delight to hear about his retirement when you and Lee would converse about him. Take solice in knowing that he definitely lived life to the fullest and enjoyed the gathering of family. May your memories always bring smiles.
