73, passed away on January 17, 2012, born in Kingston, NY in 1938. His Air Force career took him to Viet Nam, Thailand, Greenland, Roswell, NM, Minot, ND, and Rantoul, IL, before retiring to Tucson, AZ in 1977.

He loved the outdoors, fishing, hunting, and camping, and plenty of beer to go along wherever he went. He is survived by his wife of over 41 years, Susie, sister-in-law, Sharon Melone; brothers, Louis, Dave, Clifford, Henry, and sister, Augusta. Also survived by many nieces, nephews, extended family from both TMC and the Air Force, and his beloved dog, Quincy.
