I believe Jon Pirkle Sr. passed away about 10 or 15 years ago. I think his son, John Jr was doing it for a while, but I haven't heard anything about him for some time. A Google search did not turn up any current business address, so I'm not sure he's still in the business. A shame. John Sr did some work for me many years ago and it was first class!
