Sweet Pea as he was known to some could always be seen "Down In The Hole" at the Franklin Park Golf Course and at the V.F.W. Post in Mattapan S.Q.  After retiring from the M.D.C., Mein Vater volunteered his time with The Resident Advisory Board (RAB) which addressed the issues of quality housing for seniors. Prior to the M.D.C. my Father served about a supply vessel called the U.S.S. Nantahala with distinction and courage.  Mein Vater, knew a lot of people high and low.  He was a social light and was always a welcome site in any social gathering, affair, or party.  Folks tell me, he will be missed; especially, his fiery spirit.
