While working at Willet Hauser, Rick oversaw the complete restoration of the facade window at his alma mater, PAFA. During the restoration of this Frank Furness masterpiece he noticed that for over thirty years four of the windows had been installed upside down. Righting those sections and other poorly painted replacement pieces returned the window to its original gracefulness.
