Torchy headed the organization of all his High School Reunions where over 600 Baby Boomers were in his graduating class. He attended Butler University and Kent State. May 4th 1970 was his last day at Kent State where he witnessed the shootings by the national guard.

His celebrity connections started way back even before his children entered the entertainment business. His son became a Hollywood agent and his daughter worked her way up to become a TV producer for MTV. He always had an interest in seeking a way to combine his nostalgia obsession with communications through the internet. Torchy developed computer skills beyond others his age as the baby boomers are hard pressed to “learn new tricks”.
