Irv was a lifelong resident of North Little Rock, Arkansas. He graduated from North Little Rock High School in 1949, served in the Army during the Korean war and attended and graduated from the University of Arkansas in 1955. After graduation he started working for his father at a modest print shop across the street from the family home. In the late 1950’s he drove to St. Louis and bought a tabletop press to print flexographic labels. Daniel Label Printing is now one of the largest printing companies in the State of Arkansas with over 85000 square feet and ship worldwide. 

He was an avid boater on the Arkansas River and raised his kids and half of North Little Rock going out on his 1957 Chris Craft. There was always room for one more to go! The family would also like to thank Wendy Desizlets, Shannon Hichens, and Edith Rhodes for the love and care given to Dad.
