I knew Low Tide from the old Pilgrim Days,  he and Bobby Gandolfi were always the dynamic duo and inseparable. He worked the Torus area most of the time, and in an industry replete w/characters, he stood out at the top. Good HP, practical, and always had a good joke and a story to tell!  Truly one of the "old fashioned" HP's. God Bless his soul!

I worked with Low Tide at Pilgrim in 1976.  I was one of the few HPs, He and many others of the "Newbury Port Boys"  worked for CapGun as Deconners.  They were such a great and funny group!  My first name is Leon, and I miss all of them.

Oh, man.  I missed this.  I was in Ireland for my daughter's wedding and never heard a peep about it, even though I live in Newburyport.  What a time we all had deconning at Pilgrim back in those days.  The Tide, Guinea, OJ, Jamie Gandolfi, Teddy Rurak, Mike Sullivan, Billy Mahoney, young Richie, Eddie Gundal, and a truly colorful host of "one-timers".  Lots of laughs and good times.  Too many stories to tell, too many Three Stooges routines re-enacted, too many of us have passed. 

The Tide is out......
