He was head coach of the Stamford/Trinity Catholic girls volleyball program that won four class S state championships in the 1980’s.

The title of the book, also published by AuthorHouse, is “The Little Red Chair.” Since the completion of this book he has written a number of poems and keeps a journal of observations that, in time, will be expanded further.visualizza meno
