Bobby Steinle was a highly skilled Elevator Constructor at Eastern Elevator Company in the 1960’s.
The skill of his labor has withstood the test of time, with many Elevators that he installed still in operation today, some 50 years later.
There is no question in our minds, that the legacy of fine craftsmanship that Bobby left behind, is a tribute to Eastern Elevator Company and Local #91 of the International Union of Elevator Constructors.
Godspeed our fraternal brother Bobby Steinle, and thank you again, for your invaluable contributions to the Elevator Industry in the State of Connecticut.
