Among his clients over the years were Congress members Susan Molinari and Vito Fossella, Victory Memorial Hospital, the Brooklyn D.A. Charles J. Hynes, and the army recruitment office at Fort Hamilton.

He is survived by his wife, Phillippa, a teacher at Fontbonne Hall Academy, Bay Ridge.

A Mass of Christian Burial will be celebrated Feb. 13 at Our Lady of Angels Church, Bay Ridge, at 10:30 a.m. Following the Mass, a luncheon in honor of his life will be conducted at the Fort Hamilton Army Base Community Club.
