In 2014, debates flared on whether his former home in East Aurora should be demolished or preserved for local historical purposes. The owner of the house wanted to knock it down to make room for a parking lot.[4] The matter was resolved on May 1, 2014, when the village trustees granted the house landmark status.[5]
