RIP


Co-Founder of Mr. Coffee Company Dies in Ohio at Age 91
Vincent Marotta, one of the co-founders of the iconic Mr. Coffee brand that helped revolutionize how Americans make their morning brew, died Saturday at his home in suburban Cleveland. He was 91.  Marotta and his business partner and high school friend Samuel Glazer turned Mr. Coffee into a household name after asking two engineers to create a drip brewing system like those found in restaurants.
Rest in Peace dear man.  I owe you my sentient existence.
