"Big Ned" was all he was ever known as. He had a dream of packing meat as a teenager. And with a lot of pounding on the pavement, he was able to live his dream of having others pack meat with him.

Yes, he had several people who were more than capable of "tube stuffin' ", but Ned liked to keep a firm hold on his base. "To Hell with the nuts!" he said, out of disregard for those who lost sight of their nest. "I'm stayin' right here, with my hand on my business!"
