May you R.I.P. In my early years in Shoreham I would spend untold hours at your shop. I learned so much. You had gift for all who were there. It was honest and sincere Friendship. With basic tools you created works of art. Sadly I lost contact with you due to military service and you went to work at the school. Whenever I returned home as I went past your shop. It remained closed. I knew it would never be the same after that. Thank You so much for all you did. Ron Enriquez
