Our deepest and sincerest condolences to his family, friends, & colleagues. He was a pioneer and tireless advocate for creating and saving American jobs, especially by increasing manufacturing in the U.S.A. His motto was "For Country, For Soldier, For American Worker, and For Our Children's Future". Although we only met him once, it was clear from the interview that he was a special and compassionate man and, through the great Made in America Store, he has created an incomparable legacy. It is a legacy that will endure, both with the people who came to know him as well as through the continued growth and prosperity of the store he created. May he rest in peace.
