Statement of Tribute: My father did not tell us he had an AAA, but I believe he knew. He was on the dance floor having fun and collapsed in pain. He died within half-hour while being prepped for surgery. He was a great man. We miss him every day. He served our country and was an electrician at a steel mill. He was very laid back and loved camping, swimming, the ocean and amusement parks. I watched every Steelers games with him. He was a huge fan. We love you and miss you Dad!
