    Mill worker killed by falling debris BY KEITH BENMAN, Munster Times, IN
    He had worked for a time in California for Pacific Gas and Electric Co. doing asbestos removal. He never shied away from any job, no matter how difficult, Toni Maffitt said. Perhaps not always by choice.

    'He was just a very dedicated worker,' she said. 'And nowadays it's hard to get a job at all, so once he got one, he would just work as many hours as he could work.'
