He has provided expert construction technique guidance, suggestions and alternatives towards the successful completion of this project. Before construction started, Mr. Yocca was able to significantly contribute to the feasibility of this project by suggesting alternatives to lower the cost of construction without compromising the design intent or integrity of the building. At each site meeting Mr. Yocca is prepared to discuss creative solutions to problems that have arisen and often provides the best solutions.

Ron helped me in the early years of my company by making sure that I got jobs with his company ``Tri-State Development`` on rehabilitation projects within the Mon Valley... I also asked for his help in the management end of my company and Ron readily obliged to lend a hand.<\/p>\n<p>Ron is bright, energetic, honest, compassionate and genuinely well rounded. He participates in social activities that help people who are down on their luck and need a hand up and has been a pleasure to work with.<\/p>\n<p>Ron has also spent considerable time outside his position,as a General Contractor\/ Business Owner involved in the community. This has included work with recovering addicts in which he sets a superb example to our youth!<\/p>\n<p>In closing, let me take a moment to say that I personally do not write these letters without taking into consideration the character of the person I am recommending. With Ron it is no problem because I do believe in this man!<\/p>\n<p>It is clear to me as I hope it is to you that this man, Ron Yocca, is an exceptional person, one that would contribute greatly to any program.
