Great guy, as a kid I worked a hot dog stand that Muzzie was fond of and I'll never forget his order, "Gimme two Polish Mac, and run em' through the garden, of course my efforts were always appreciated and met with a nice tip. God Bless Muzzie!!!!

My thoughts and prayers to Muzzi's family. What a kind and wonderful man you were. I will always remember our friendship. All the stories and cocktails we shared throughout the years. Bartending for you. I have to say, you were the best boss I've ever had. I will never forget you. Rest peacefully my dear friend.

Dearest Patricia and family, we were saddened to hear of your husbands passing. God himself will give strength indeed to his people; he himself will bless his people with peace. You are in our thoughts.
