Penn. racing circuit. "It was his ultimate performance piece, the
racing "Art" car number 59!" Lola Scarpitta.

Great artist, wonderful teacher, incredible conversationalist and the
most ideal father his rebel daughters could have had the fortune to be
born to. You are deeply missed by all who knew you enough to have loved
you.
