So sorry for your loss. Me and my mother was a customer of H&D at the H. St. N.E. location. I was too excited to find out that they were coming to Maryland. I frequent at the Allentown location from time to time. RIP Mr. Shannon.

Dickey would call or come and get me to help him work on his antique classic Mercedes and computers. Then he would challenge me about how to fix the things, he would say if it ain't broke don't fix it, then I would say for your knowledge this is called preventive stuff, he would put that big old smile on his face.
