The Whereabouts of an old friend, Jon Diresta

Mad Dog_2

Good morning.  I haven't spoken to Jon in about 3 yrs and his email and phone number bounce back.  He is A licensed master plumber and great with Radiant boilers and heating.  He was from the 5 Towns of Long Island and last I knew lived in East Islip. He had some health problems.  I met him in PHCC.  He was a great guy.  He was also the licensed plumber for OSI in Oceanside at one time for the Levi Brothers.  After that he worked for Rathe associates as a radiant design specialist.   The last job I knew he had was working for Mrs Fortunoff (Yes, those Fortunes that owned the stores)
Running her estate.  I lost touch with him and would like to reconnect. Anybody?   Dan, would Al Levi know?   Thanks guys. Mad Dog

Hi Mad Dog, Any chance it's this Jon? https://www.spokeo.com/Jon-Diresta/New-York/West-Islip/p2017022511561859482960918180970

Yours, Larry

Hi Larry.   Thanks buddy.  I tried that route too and actually found full numbers and addresses, but numbers are disconnected and emails bounce back. Hope you've been well.  I still have that Belt buckle you sent me!   Mad Dog

I don’t thin Al would know. He’s been out of OSI for many years. You should call the office. One of the others may know.

Hi, That Spokeo link gave names of relatives, which could be useful in finding Jon also. Maybe

Yours, Larry

ps. Glad you still have the belt buckle!

Having no luck. I called OSI and left a message AND emailed them and got no reply over a month ago. I'll keep trying. Mad Dog

Update.  I found my old friend via Dan and Guys at OSI who know him and tracked him down. I'm just glad he's still kicking and I will visit him this week. Thanks everyone.   Mad Dog

Great news!  Thank you, Matt.

Please keep him in your prayers.  He's one of us .  He has been dealt a bad hand in life and he keeps fighting and smiling. He's an idol of a man to me.  Thank you again. Mad  🐕
