1993-94. The club honored him with a Silver Torch Award in 1999 and made him an honorary lifetime member. He was an IATC regional director and received the IATC’s Gold Torch award in 2001. He co-founded the Saratoga Torch club. He is a lifetime member of the Torch Foundation. Most recently he led the Torch history project linked to the organization’s centennial.
