In 48 years, we never exchanged a cross word, and I take no credit for that. It's hard to go through life and not have enemies. John Marinatto may be the only person I know who didn't have enemies. He was extremely well liked and well respected.

I had many conversations with him because that was absolutely not the case, the deck was stacked. There were circumstances totally out of his control.
