Lost Friends

Poster #10: I am big; my initials are CP; I am from Pennsylvania. I have just found this post three years late. Just who are you looking for? I am retired, so no worries in asking.

 

I am old Ayerst Midwest. The names I recall are the Mel Edwards', Glenn Smith, Felix Roberts, Barney Oldfield, Mike Josephson, Jim Clohessy, Sam Walker, of course Gary Grim, Earl Smith. Those were simpilar times. Any old midwesterners out there?

 

I worked for the OTC parent company back in 1975, Whitehall Labs. Back when Anacin was still a big brand.

 

Anyone here from the old Ophthalmos Division that marketed Epitrate, Auralgan and Neopropisol etc.? I was West Coast rep covering 12 states and eventually it was folded into the Ayerst family. I transferred to a SF Bay Area territory under Johnny Evelyn, Frank Roy, and Wood Putnam. Richard Shand, ex-Kaiser rep. is still around.

 

I worked for Earl Smith, Gary Grim and Sam Walker 1987 to 1989!

 

I was in the pink palace from 1977to 1986. Remember Gus cerritelli, bill sharp, Ernie zobel, then Arnold Dominic and lots others. It was even good times there.

 

How about Steve Kobinski, George DeMott, Alex Cestaro & Jean Cawley, all in the pink monstrosity.

 

I was in pink palace from 78 to 86. Remember Andy Panagy, Arnold Somin, Ernie zobel, bill sharp. Somin had his problems, but demoting cerritelli wasn't one of them. Also, John Schmitt, Paul Gallagher. Where are any of them now?
