He went on to attend Franklin & Marshall College on an academic scholarship, where he earned a Bachelor’s degree in Biology in the Pre-Healing Arts program. He later achieved a remarkable and historic milestone when he was accepted into the University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine, earning his Doctor of Medicine degree in 1977. At a time when barriers for individuals with hearing loss in medical education were immense, he made history as the first deaf student to graduate from the University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine, a testament to his extraordinary determination, intellect, and unwavering commitment to serving others through medicine. Following medical school, he completed his Radiology residency and a fellowship in Special Procedures at the University of Pittsburgh Hospitals. He began his career as Assistant Professor of Radiology and Director of Vascular Radiology at West Virginia University in Morgantown, West Virginia.

In addition, he provided radiology services remotely through vRad and for numerous local medical practices, continuing his dedication to patient care throughout his career. He was deeply committed to community service and advocacy. He served for several years on the Board of the Beaver County Historical Society and on the Governor’s Advisory Board for the Deaf and Hard of Hearing, working to improve opportunities and accessibility for others. Outside of medicine, he enjoyed spending time outdoors and especially loved riding his Harley-Davidson trike. He was also a licensed Extra Class Amateur Radio Operator, a hobby he greatly enjoyed. He was also an avid reader who loved studying American history, especially the French and Indian War and the American Revolution and he had a deep interest in Biblical archaeology. Above all, he loved his family and lived his life guided by his faith. He loved and faithfully served his Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, and was known by those who knew him as a kind, generous, and compassionate man who was always willing to help others. His life was one of faith, perseverance, and service. His legacy lives on through his family, the many patients he cared for, and the barriers he helped break for others. The family would like to thank Timothy Denny, Sarah Guest, Jordan Serra, Sarah Troyer, Reza Zadfar, Candice and Mary Brutt, and AHN Wexford ICU for their unwavering love, care, and support.
