Mike Rastatter - SpeechEasy

The following is from Willie - as told to Dede, and posted by Rich.

As we look to our past to recall fond memories, it is important to acknowledge where we are going. We come from families that were part of the wave of immigrants that made this country what it is. A lot of family members did not even complete high school, and college was only a far reaching dream.

I have been blessed to be a part of the Crotty clan and want to preserve in this blog the accomplishments of my children. Mike is my second child, and only son. He is currently a professor at East Carolina University.

Mike is part of a team that designed the SpeechEasy device, which has allowed stutterers to speak fluently almost immediately. Mike has been interviewed by ABC News, NBC News, British Broadcasting Corp, and People Magazine about the device.

If you do a Google search on SPEECH EASY, you can see testimonials from people that this has helped. You can also do a Google search on U S Patent 5961443.

A person can have no better legacy that helping others.
