My very dear friend, the late Steve Horvath was a Switlik man from the word "go." I grew up with Steve on Hartley Avenue, and in his later years, he was one of my "all stars" when I was the President of St. Anthony's Holy Name Society. Along with the Soffel, Slabicki, and Dilts families, he and his wife Carrie, were close neighborhood friends back in the years of my youth. Every time I hear of the Switlik Parachute Company, I think of Steve. He was a Switlik man through and through, and one of the nicest gentlemen I have had the pleasure to call my friend.
