Larry Pitt, a highly valued MFG teammate and a personal friend, passed away suddenly on July 31, quite a shock to many who knew him well.
Larry started his 47-year career with MFG in October, 1962. His hard work and dedication led Larry through many positions at MFG, including plant manager of our Ashtabula manufacturing facility - which was MFG's largest entity at that time. Although a tough taskmaster, he was admired and respected by those who worked with him.
Larry's wife Beverly worked at MFG for many years as a production supervisor, and several other relatives were MFG teammates as well. Helen Pitt, one of Larry and Beverly's children, now supervises our material compounding department (iCOM), which her dad supervised for many years in the 70's and 80's. Like father, like daughter!
Larry was a great guy, a "salt-of-the earth" man, who was fun to be with and someone you could always count on.
We miss you, Larry, but your legacy lives on.
