Joyce as you know Ira was a GREAT guy and treated the Chicago Police with such GREAT respect. I will always remember the GREAT times at the bar. You and your family will be in my prayers.

Neither Ira or the bar could ever be replaced. He was a great guy and a real friend. The Ira stories will live forever. He made the best corned beef I ever ate.
