Friends, family, and those who served with Irving are invited to share a memory and sign his guestbook below.
My husband, Scott Klein, was part of the gang that used to hang out at Orve and Maria Johansson’s Baseball Card Company on West Bay Drive. That gang included Gloria and Irv. Scott sold our car – named ‘The Beauty’-to Irv for $1 in June 1999. Scott wrote on that dollar bill ‘Rec’d 6-27-99 from Irv Pike for The Beauty.’ My husband passed away in 2005 and I still have that dollar bill. I have fond memories of Irv and that Baseball Card Company gang. My deepest condolences to your family.
