He constructed a beautiful parking garage for Shelton out of cardboard to present to some board in the 70's. He used to trap quirrels in Milford and drop them off in the woods in Shelton (sorry Shelton.) He kept a running tab of how many he caught, and couldn't believe they could mate and create that many of themselves! He built an elaborate twin tower memorial to replace what was lost and submitted it to the N.Y.C authorities....I could go on........I thank whoever and all of you for creating this site and for your words.
