I met Irv at his sister Jerry's wedding.  He was still in the Navy at the time.  When he came out, we got together and became friends.  He and Annette were married at Warrensville Synagogue on a cold snowy day.
  They had two beautiful children and a great life.  I moved to Atlanta and then Irv went to work at Unisys in Atlanta.  He like to be called "George" from George of the jungle.  
       We were both busy raising a family.  I moved two more times.  I last spoke with Annette last year.  I never got to speak with Irv.  That was the last time that I spoke with them.
    Hope that Annette and Kieth are doing well.

Irving and I served in the U. S. Navy together on the submarine USS Sam Rayburn SSBN-635.  We both Were Electronic Technicians working in the navigation center.  We made 4 war patrols together.  Two out of Charleston SC, and two out of Holy Lock Scotland.  This was in the late 1960s and early 1970s.

Irving and I both rode motorcycles.  At the time he had a Kawasaki 350 triple, and I had a Honda 750.  While stationed in Charleston, SC we took a motorcycle trip to Columbia SC where my parents lived.  I was leading the way until one of the lenses fell out of my eye glasses and hit Irving on the hand while riding north on I26.  I told him he would had to lead after that because I couldn’t see, but he said he had no idea where we were going!  We did manage to get to my parent’s house ok.

I found out about a year ago that we both lived close to Lawrenceville, Georgia.  We lived within 5 miles of each other for about 20 years, and never knew it.  I’m sorry we didn’t run into each other so we could have caught up with the years since being in the Navy.

Irving was one of the good guys.  He will be missed.
