Mid Mon Valley All Sports Hall Of Fame 2010 Inductees
Arthur Artis
Born April 27, 1941, Art Artis was a dynamic and versatile athlete coming out of Speers, Pennsylvania. Art attended Charleroi High School, where he excelled in both baseball and basketball. As John R. Bunardzya, sports editor of the Charleroi Mail, wrote, “If anybody deserves to be collared with a floral horseshoe its lefty Art Artis, the Cougars’ jack-of-all-trades who pitches, plays first base and patrols the outfield. He is ‘Artful Art’ on the mound.
His most famous year came during the 1957-1958 basketball season when he would help guide the Charleroi Cougars to the WPIAL championship. Charleroi defeated Washington 46-45 on Wednesday, March 19, 1958 before 5,000 fans at the Pitt Field House to win the title. A clutch free throw by Jim Chacko with only three seconds remaining in the game was the decisive score. Artis was given honorable mention for All Section in basketball in 1958 as well as the following season. As his coach Henry Pennline emphasized, Art was “the best number 6 man in the WPIAL.
Artis was equally dangerous on the diamond. Because of their superb talents, Charleroi teams during that decade became known as “The Yankees of the Mon Valley. During the 1958 season Art had a big year in the field as well as on the mound, including a one-hitter against Donora in a 15-0 win. Art struck out eight batters in that game.
Though a basketball injury limited his play the following season, Artis received a contract offer from the Detroit Tigers. He declined the offer and instead chose to attend college. After that Artis began playing in the sandlot and Legion leagues in Charleroi and continued to dominate competition.
In 1958 Art received numerous awards for his outstanding play. He was named the “Outstanding Player from the 25th District of the American Legion and was chosen to represent the West squad in the 1959 American Legion Junior East-West All Star Game. He also played in the Sun-Telegraph Hearst All-Star Classic at Forbes Field in the Oakland section of Pittsburgh. To top off the list, Art was named “Outstanding Pitcher in the 1959 state championship games in Reading, Pennsylvania.
Artis graduated in 1959 and began his college journey that same year. Once again he would spread his talent over a variety of sports, this time at California University of Pennsylvania. In basketball it did not take long for Artis to be recognized. He started his fifth game and did so through his junior year, scoring 800 points along the way.
Likewise in baseball Art found a home starting in centerfield for Cal State. In 1962, Artis hit .400 while playing in the college world series. Artis would have to put his athletic career on hold however, as student teaching obligation prevented him from participating in sports his senior season.
Artis contributes his success to those around him, rather than raw talent. “My success in sports comes down to two things. One, I had great coaches and two, I played with some of the greatest athletes this valley has ever produced, he said.
Art started his long tenure in teaching in 1963 in Miami, Florida. He worked as the fifth grade teacher from March of that year until the summer. The following school year he came back as the seventh grade math teacher. In 1964 he began to teach Algebra, pre-algebra, and general math as well as coach in the Elizabeth Forward School District. He continued his career as a math teacher for the next 30 years and worked as a coach in both baseball and basketball.
He married Patricia Collaretti who passed away in June of 1976. He would later marry Mary Gladys Booth. Art has three children - Scott, Kristi, and Shelly.
Andrew “Buzz Garnic
When most think of a sports hall of fame they immediately think of athletes, the men on the field who are faster, stronger, and nimble. Though Garnic did his fair share of rounds in the ring, it’s his work on the sideline that has gained him the most recognition. Known for his strict dietary and exercising regimens, the 1954 California Community High School graduate has been sought by many great boxers throughout the United States. Garnic was born on January 22, 1937, the son of the late Andy and Alexandria Digon Garnic.
Garnic began boxing when he was 14. “I was working in the mill at Allenport and decided to give it a try, he said. “I had a few fights as an amateur and was doing well until the accident. Garnic’s fighting days were over as a result of an automobile accident December 26, 1958. His love for boxing however did not fade.
“It took a long, long time to get back on my feet, he said. “The doctors finally put me back together, and my last operation was in 1964. Any thought I had of fighting again were erased, but I knew I wanted to stay in the game. By making this decision, Garnic began what became a historic career.
Working under the tutelage of the legendary 1965 Mon Valley Hall of Fame inductee George Humphries, who Garnic had trained with previously when learning to box, “Buzz learned the ins and outs of everything that was boxing without actually fighting in the ring. He served in the corner and as a trainer for the Hilltop Athletic Club in Charleroi and quickly made his presence felt.
The Hilltop Athletic Club turned out many great competitors. Those who stand out to Garnic are Sam Sellers, Leroy Youngblood and Mike Belski. “Sam was a tough man who would go toe to toe with you, “he recalled. “Mike was the same way. He weighed only 160 pounds but he would take on anybody. He and Butch Lucero of Pittsburgh faced each other in two of the best fights I’ve ever seen in this area.
In 1979, Garnic opened Kolick AC, his first training facility. The facility was named for Moon Kolick who was Garnic’s mentor. “Buzz helped train Harold Knight for his fight in Atlantic City with the match broadcast on ABC-TV “Wide World of Sports. Unfortunately, Kolick AC burned to the ground in 1989. Being the determined competitor that he is, Garnic saw through the production of a new facility in 2002, fittingly named Buzz Garnic Jr. Round 2. This facility has housed such names as Michael Moorer, Paul Spadafora, Livingstone Bramble and Roy Jones, Jr.
Brian “The Beast Minto, one of Garnic’s pupils proclaims “He’s a great guy. He’d give you the shirt off his back if you needed it. He knows the game so well and he understands what we need, physically and emotionally. He has a strong work ethic and it rubs off on you. He does everything the right way, and this camp is first class all the way.
Garnic trains his students with traditional methods of mitt work and heavy bag but in addition his fighters work with a nutritionist and decide on a diet that works to the specific fighter. “I won’t stand for any nonsense when they’re training, Garnic said. “Being late for meals is unacceptable. You have to put your heart and soul into what you’re doing and nothing else can get in the way. It’s like any sport: what you learn in practice is going to pay big dividends when you get in the game or in the ring.
His work is not strictly for the competitors trying to make a big name for themselves. Though Garnic cherishes his days of working with these great competitors, he cares just as much for the people who come to the gym looking to better themselves.
“Our gym is open 24 hours a day, seven days a week, he said. “We’re there for anyone who wants to improve himself. It’s not all about becoming a world champion. There are many lessons to be learned in life. I was fortunate to have some great mentors over the years, and I feel the obligation to do the same for anyone who comes knocking on our door.
Garnic retired from Wheeling-Pittsburgh Steel in 1987. He now resides in Coal Center. “Buzz married the former Patty Albaugh in 1957 and they have four daughters, Andrea, Patty, Paula, Susan, and a son, Andy “Buzz Garnic Jr.
Pete Goimarac
Picture your typical offensive lineman, about 6’-2 and weighing 300 to 320 pounds. They appear big enough to push their way around; however, few can make it that far that fast. That is what separated Pete Goimarac from the rest of his competition. His size and strength made him an ideal offensive lineman and his speed made him more effective.
Pete played for Charleroi High School under the legendary “Rab Currie. He represented the Cougars in both football and track. In football, his speed allowed the 6’-2, 220- pounder to play any position on the line. He was also a defensive end and was considered to play fullback. His versatility was noticed after his junior year as he was named to the All Big 6 Conference team.
In 1959, Goimarac and the Cougars captured the Big 6 title and went on to win the WPIAL title with a victory over Aliquippa at Pitt Stadium. The team finished with an 11-0 record capped with the 13-12 victory to take the WPIAL title. Charleroi was the number five ranked team in the country that year. In addition to the championship, Pete pulled in some awards of his own. He made the All Big 6 first team as a guard. He was chosen for the Big 33 Pennsylvania squad and played the National High School All American team in Hershey. Along with quarterback Gary Hogan, Pete and the rest of the Big 33 ended the game in a 0-0 tie.
“I’ve often thought back and remembered Pete to have been one of the toughest…blocker, lineman, linebackers…I played with or against and there were many, Hogan said. “We were childhood friends growing up two to three houses apart between 9th and 10th St. on Fallowfield Ave and attended St. Cyril’s School together for grades 1 to 8…then 9 to 12 at Charleroi High School. Along with Paul Strelick, Dallas Cosgrove, and others we were founding members of the 10th Street Gang.
Pete was first team WPIAL and first All State in addition to being named to the High School All American team by Scholastic Magazine. He was named second team All American by a national poll, one of only three Pennsylvanians to make any of the seven teams.
The college offers began pouring in Pete’s senior year. With many scholarships on the table, Goimarac chose to attend the University of Notre Dame. His time there would not be long, however, as he transferred to West Virginia University. He lettered three years for the Mountaineers and was named team captain during his senior season. Following his junior season, Pete was named all Southern Conference and received the award once again his senior year. He was also selected second team All American following his senior year. His success would not go overlooked as he was drafted by the AFL and the NFL by the San Diego Chargers and the Philadelphia Eagles, respectively. Goimarac did not stay in the NFL long and instead chose to work in the business world. He worked as an executive for JC Penny Company until he retired. Goimarac passed away on January 23, 2002. He left behind his wife of 37 years, Carol Reid Goimarac also a Charleroi High graduate. They have a son and a daughter, Peter Paul Goimarac, Jr. and Marci Tedesco. Peter Paul has a daughter Elizabeth and a son Peter III. Marci has three daughters, Abby, Franny and Josie.
Mark Gorscak
It takes talent to recognize talent. This is often the reason why many of the top scouts are former athletes. Having been there, athletes have a familiarity of what works and what does not. They know what key traits to look for in an athlete. They know the ins and outs of what it takes to work at the next level. Mark Gorscak is no different. "Each season we start with a list of 14,000 college players and whittle it down to 900 with redeeming qualities to play pro football, he said. “It's then reduced to 330 to the combine with 250 getting drafted. The opening day roster usually shows 200 new players including 60 free agents."
Now a college scout for the Pittsburgh Steelers, Gorscak used to make his presence known on the football field as a center for the Ringgold High School Rams. Mark played on the same team as another Mid Mon Valley Hall of Famer, Joe Montana. He was Joe’s center in high school during Montana’s senior year. Gorscak played two seasons for the Rams and his play on the field was exemplary as he would receive a Big 33 nomination and Big 10 Conference All-Star honors. After Gorscak graduated from the Donora campus of Ringgold High School in 1975, he went to Dickinson College where he earned his degree in psychology. He also has a master’s degree in sports administration from St. Thomas University in Miami, Florida.
Gorscak spent the first 16 years of his football career coaching at both the high school and collegiate levels. He spent time at Perkiomen (PA) Prep School, Western Maryland College, and Gulliver Prep (FL) High School.
In 1982 Gorscak became an athletic administrator and assistant football coach at Dickinson College. In 1986 Mark began work with Weber State University in Ogden, Utah. There he worked in football marketing and promotions and coached tight ends.
The following year, in 1987, Gorscak became the first general manager of the Pittsburgh Gladiators of the Arena Football League team. There he worked as a “one man office to promote the new addition to the Pittsburgh sports family.
The following season Gorscak went back to Weber State University working once again as a coach and an athletic administrator. At Weber State, he served as the administrative coordinator handling recruiting, team travel, and university and community relations and as an assistant football coach. He coached the tight ends, wide receivers, kickers and was also the special teams coordinator for seven years. At Weber, Mark also played an integral role in saving the football program from being dropped in 1994. In 1995 the Steelers called Mark for a scouting position. Mark became a BESTO scout from 1995 – 1997 for the Steelers and today serves as a college scout. “I spend six months a year traveling. I’ll fly in somewhere, rent a car and fly back out. Mark has scouted 111 out of 120 1A colleges. His primary scouting area is in the south. Mark is starting his 16th year with the Steelers.
During his time with the Steelers, the team has two Superbowl victories, three Superbowl appearances, and has made the playoffs nine times. You can also find him yearly at the annual NFL combine where he is the official starter for the 40 yard-dash. Mark currently resides in Pittsburgh.
Stan “Nunnie Milchovich
Charleroi Area School District has had its fair share of successful athletes. Not many were as versatile or enduring as Stan “Nunnie Milchovich. Growing up in Stockdale it was not long before “Nunnie was trying his hand at all sorts of athletics including football, basketball, baseball and soccer. His talents carried on into his high school days where he would excel. Stan was the kicker and safety on the football team. His versatility also allowed him to be the team’s backup quarterback and do some work as the tailback as well.
On the diamond, “Nunnie was also a star outfielder and second baseman during the proverbial “Golden Age of Valley baseball. On the hardwood he led the Cougars to a section championship as the team captain and starting point guard. Under the direction of legendary coach R. James “Rab Currie, “Nunnie learned the game as no one else could teach it. Milchovich pays much gratitude to “Rab.
“Rab was a true disciplinarian; it was his way or no way, he said. He’s the one who convinced me to play football. I weighed only 125 pounds and actually quit the team, but he talked to me and encouraged me to give it another shot. I’m glad he did.
By the end of his senior year in 1953 Milchovich had lettered in football, basketball, and baseball and was on his way to California State College. On the football field, “Nunnie performed the kicking duties and worked as the safety and did work as a tailback. Stan fondly remembers, “I lettered as a freshman playing tailback, he said. “My sophomore year the team switched to the ‘T.’ I was the first ‘T’ quarterback at Cal. I played quarterback-safety and did all the kicking for the rest of my career. I earned three letters in football, three in basketball, four in baseball (a total of 10). Stan would also play soccer for Roscoe and Dunlevy for ten years. “I also worked three days a week at Wheeling-Pittsburgh Steel in Allenport. He also became the president of the Vulcan Varsity Club. He graduated in 1958 with a degree in education and later obtained his masters and principal papers from West Virginia University.
He began his teaching career as a history and science instructor at Bentworth High School. He was also an assistant coach in football and basketball. Stan recalls, “In basketball we won the school’s only WPIAL championship during the 1962–1963 season. In 1963, “Nunnie continued to both teach and coach at Charleroi High School. He would work his way from a social studies teacher to principal and his success did not stop there. He soon became the school’s athletic director. As a principal for ten years, Stan was also named to the WPIAL Board of Control serving seven years and chairman of the soccer committee for five years. Stan was a PIAA basketball official from 1960 until 2000. He worked junior and senior high and college officiating including many WPIAL and state playoffs. For many years he was president and rules interpreter for the Mon Valley officiating chapter. Stan taught graduate safety courses for Penn State University at Trinity, Latrobe, and McKeesport for five years.
If that weren’t enough to have on his plate, Stan worked as an assistant track coach for three years, a junior high head basketball coach for four years, and an assistant coach to the varsity football team serving under his old mentor, “Rab Currie. Stan retired in 1993. Like many great athletes, “Nunnie was not going to let a little thing like retirement hold him back as he made his return in 1995 to fill in as an administrator of Frazier School District and then to Chartiers-Houston.
The following year, he once again served as an interim administrator, this time at Charleroi Area. He served for three months and then retired, from the desk that is. Milchovich still takes to the softball field and competes even now into his 70s. He has won four world championships and has four championship rings. Softball has taken him as far as Disneyworld in Florida, though the finest competition was at St. Georges in Utah, where 350 teams came from all around to play in the tournament. The first year Milchovich’s Pennsylvania entry came in third place. The following two seasons his team would come in second. It was not until their fourth attempt that they would take the gold.
He has enjoyed equal success in the state senior games. He went on to win a gold medal in softball for tossing 195’, 205’, and 210’. “Nunnie recalls, “In 2003 I was selected to the All World Softball team while playing for Smith and Barney out of Pittsburgh. I also played for Mitchell Construction from York and Central (Harrisburg) Pennsylvania, he said. “We won world championships with all of these teams. I also played for West Virginia All Stars, who won a national championship. He also took additional gold in basketball and football. Stan remembered, “In the Senior Games locally I won over 50 medals along with garnering the state champ in the softball and football throw for five years.
Stan has been the recipient of numerous awards over his productive educational athletic career including election to the Charleroi Football Hall of Fame in 1992 for which he began and served as president for fifteen years, election to the Washington – Greene County chapter of the Pennsylvania Sports Hall of Fame in 1994, and named a Michael A. Duda award winner at California University of Pennsylvania in 1995.
Stan and his wife, the former Rita Fabiszewski live in Ellsworth. They have two children, Carol Jones and Stan Milchovich, Jr.
Vic Trilli
“Football was the easiest choice as I grew up in the Belle Vernon area. Though football was the easiest choice for Vic Trilli, it was on the basketball court that he would call home. During his sixth grade year, Trilli attended St. Sebastian Parochial School in Belle Vernon. Under the tutelage of Coach Glen Cotter, Trilli got his first taste of the sport he would forever leave his mark on. “To this day I still consider Coach Cotter to be the most influential coach of my life! With his help Trilli easily found his way into the starting lineup at Bellmar Junior High School. He went on to average 15 points a game.
Trilli played JV basketball during his freshmen year and was also a reserve on the varsity squad. It did not take long for Vic to become a starter for the varsity team. During his sophomore season he would start eight games and average six points per game. He became a team leader by his senior season and led all varsity with 18 points per game while being named First Team All-Section Player. He was also nominated to the Dapper Dan Roundball Classic. “Pound for pound, he is by far one of the toughest competitors with the deadliest jump shot, I ever had the pleasure of coaching, said assistant coach George Estok.
Vic graduated from Belle Vernon in 1971 and received a basketball scholarship from Sheridan College and chose the Wyoming school over several other local colleges including California University of Pennsylvania. His highlights from Sheridan include a 48 shooting percent and a 91 free throw percentage. He was named 1st team All-Empire Conference and Sheridan College MVP. Following his time at Sheridan, Trilli attended Midwestern State University.
Trilli enjoyed success at Midwestern and was named a 1975 Midwestern State scholar-athlete. Immediately after the 1975 season, head coach Dr. Gerald Stockton approached Trilli about an assistant coaching position. Trilli agreed as the position would also allow him to pursue his master’s degree. It was here that he realized his true calling as a coach. With Vic’s help, his team reached the NAIA tournament four times, while reaching the final four twice.
In 1981 Trilli took on a new and higher position as the athletic director and head basketball coach at Lon Morris College. He was the youngest coach in the conference at the age of 27. Though his first two seasons proved mixed results and an unspectacular 31-31 record, by his third year Trilli gave the Bearcats something to get excited about. Following a 21-11 season, Trilli led his team to the playoffs. The following seasons his teams became ranked including a #2 ranking in the NJCAA national poll. His teams won two NJCAA Region 14 North Champions, a Texas Eastern Conference Championship and multiple all-conference championships. In addition, Trilli was named Coach of the Year for the Texas Eastern Conference and NJCAA Region 14.
Lon Morris players quickly were being recruited as was Trilli. In 1989, Vic chose to leave Lon Morris for the University of Texas. There he would spend eight and a half seasons as an assistant coach. Vic was not used to the fast paced life or the extensive travel, however he “loved every minute of it, especially the Longhorns seven NCAA tournament appearances as well as two trips to the Elite Eight.
Vic would leave Texas in 1997 to once again take the helm of a struggling basketball program at the University of North Texas. Upon arrival Vic began making changes including having 10,500 orange seats repainted to match the green color of the university and obtaining a Jumbotron for the arena. He also produced the only Top 20 recruiting class in University of North Texas history.
Following massive administration overhaul and the unfortunate passing of Marcellos Wright, one of Vic’s players, Trilli decided to leave coaching. He took a position with Garden City Community College as assistant athletic director. He was named the Athletic Director three years later and shortly after received awards for his work including the Bryce Roderick Award of Excellence for NJCAA Region VI in 2007.
In 2008 Trilli again was on the move, this time his journey would take him to Wichita, Kansas where he would become the Director of Athletics for NCAA Division II Newman University. Through all of his travels Vic always felt himself to be lucky. “I have been blessed to have had such a rewarding athletic career. I have traveled, recruited, coached, and competed and never, I repeat never worked a day in my life. I have enjoyed coaching student-athletes and helping them to be successful. My wife and family have always loved and supported me and to them I owe everything. Vic and his wife Kathy will celebrate 38 years of marriage in August and are the parents of Shannon, Leah Nunez, Jon, Ryan.
John Barbero
“Pittsburgh goal, his tenth of the season. The god-like voice booms through Mellon Arena. Don’t be fooled. That is not Zeus, Aries, or even Ed McMahon. The voice you are hearing belongs to Roscoe, Pennsylvania native John Barbero, the public address announcer for the Pittsburgh Penguins for more than 35 years beginning in 1974.
Before he ever graced the PA system in Pittsburgh, Barbero was making his voice heard throughout the region. After graduating from California Community High School in 1963, Barbero began his college expedition at Grove City College. After one year he transferred to California State College. He graduated with a degree in education and pursued a master’s degree as a reading specialist from Cal and also one in administration from Duquesne University.
“I decided to transfer to California (University of Pennsylvania) to be closer to home and the opportunity at (radio station) WESA in Charleroi, Barbero said. “I had done some work for the college station at Grove City and at the station in town and I fell in love with broadcasting.
Barbero took a job with Charleroi’s WESA-AM in the summer of 1964. His dream was to become a radio announcer. Shortly after he was presented the opportunity to broadcast California State College football games. Also the host of a popular music show, Barbero felt WESA was the perfect way to gain experience.
“We were only an AM station at the time, running from dusk to dawn – sunup to sundown, he recalled “It was a great way to break into the business because I got to do a little bit of everything. There were days I would sign on, host a variety of shows, do the news and then sign off in the evening. It made for long days at times but I enjoyed every minute of it.
Along with California State sports, WESA teamed with WEEP radio and covered the Pittsburgh Pipers of the American Basketball Association. Barbero became the “Voice of the Pipers. He would travel with the team and that is how he decided sports casting was not the job for him.
“I found out in a hurry that that is not what I wanted to be because I did not like the travel, he said. “Just going out, spending all that time in a hotel room, it got to be pretty boring and it wasn’t ideal for family life.
It also guided Barbero to his job with the Pittsburgh Penguins. WESA received complimentary tickets to Penguins games and without much interest in the team John always took advantage as he ventured to the then Civic Arena. He began to really enjoy hockey, so much so that he wrote a letter to Terry Schiffhauer, who was in charge of public relations. He explained to Terry that he liked public announcing and received a letter shortly after asking for a tape. Barbero sent a tape and was hired instantly.
Since that time, Barbero has been an integral part of the hockey club including three Stanley Cup champions and has the rings to show for it. What part does he enjoy the most?
“There are a lot of tremendous moments, really, he said. “Just the chance to see all the great players that have come and gone here, I don’t think fans in a lot of cities realize how fortunate we are to see players like Jaromir Jagr and Mario Lemieux and Pierre Larouche. Just some really outstanding hockey players and nice guys.
Barbero always made it a point to arrive two hours before every game to work on name pronunciations. After all, he is the man trademarked such announcements as “Mario Lemieuuuuuuuu and “Jarkko Ruuuuuuu-toooo.
“I’d say probably in my career, I’ve missed five games. I pride myself on being here, he said. “Not bad for a part-time employee.
On another Barbero activity, he played with some of the best softball teams (fast and slow pitch) in the area for a number of years. He also was a manager of those teams that played in tournaments in western Pennsylvania and elsewhere around the country. Probably the most notable of the softball teams were those sponsored by Lee Supply Company along with Roscoe Carins and the California Eagles. They had some of the top players in the region. Besides dominating the Mon Valley League with 10 championship teams, Barbero had second finishes in All-World tourneys at North Carolina in 1974 and two years later in Tennessee. Barbero also had third-, fourth- and sixth-place finishes going against the country’s premier slow-pitch teams. “My start in softball came from being a frustrated baseball player, he admitted. “I found I was pretty good playing softball with the local kids, so we formed a team and it was a great deal of fun. Some of his star players included Bucky Bolyard, Billy Schmidt, Pete Stankovich and Guy Bilsky. Barbero was also an outstanding street hockey player.
Barbero also has a very successful track record working in the academic world. He began teaching in 1969 at Carroll Junior High School in the Ringgold School District. He advanced to the position of assistant principal before he transferred to Waynesburg Central High School in 1976 as principal. He retired from the position in 2004.
Just because education was his primary job, it didn’t mean he didn’t take pleasure in his work with the Penguins. “I really take it seriously and take great pride in it, he said. “If I get a compliment from someone that I’m doing a good job, it really means a lot because I take pride in it and I want to be a professional at all times.
Barbero stepped down from his PA duties after the 2008-2009 NHL seasons. He is recovering from Astrocytoma, an inoperable brain tumor. Despite his illness, Barbero finished the Stanley Cup season with the Penguins in 2009. He still maintains a positive attitude and does not plan to hang up the microphone just yet.
“…I hope I get to spend a few years in the new Consol Energy arena before I retire. It should be great, he said.
Barbero is thankful for many of the gifts he has received in his life, none more than his family. “I can’t say enough about my family and friends, the way they have helped me through all of this, he said. “There aren’t enough ways to thank them for their care, concern, and love.
John, who lives in Roscoe, is the father of two sons, Brady Barbero and his wife Katie and Brett Barbero, all of Roscoe, and a daughter, Melissa Christian and her husband, Will Christian, M.D., of Scottsdale, Arizona. He also has three grandchildren, Quinn Barbero of Roscoe and Stella and Roxie Christian of Scottsdale.
