Sorry to hear about your Father. Last nig...Hello,<br /><br />Sorry to hear about your Father. Last night I googled your Father's name but also Charlie Allman and Elmer Bradshaw.<br /><br />I knew your Father while at NCR. I was out of college and he helped me enormously in my first job. <br /><br />We worked together closely -- I built his first spreadsheet so he could create and change the sales forecast and budgeting with Elmer Bradshaw and stop using the taped together paper sheets (the sales team in Rockville was shocked how quickly the budgets and forecasts could be changed shortly thereafter), he showed me the underground tunnels on the NCR complex, the warehouse next to building 26, he gave me rides on his Harley in Building 26's parking lot and I helped him work on the ATM machines that went on Navy ships. Your Father designed and put the "stripping" on the ATM machines. Several times, I went with Floyd to the NCR plant south of Dayton to help put on the stripping. When the stripping was put in the ATM machines, Floyd had some outfit in Washington DC to ensure electrical signals did not emanate from them.<br /><br />Your Father was a great guy who always helped others at NCR, always had a laugh and always worked hard. <br /><br />Dave Miklasevich (925.337.1922)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14888058758212347105noreply@blogger.com
