Terry --
I remember Joe stopping by the school's office on occasion, with his open and friendly nature. In this time of loss, my sympathies to you and the entire family.
I also want to express my ongoing gratitude for how you (along with Joyce and Rosemarie) welcomed me to Coginchaug an impossible thirty-five years ago.
Throughout those early years I knew I could approach you when I was rattled or confused; you would lean on the front counter and calmly offer a common-sense perspective and assure me things would work out. I will never forget your kindness and support.
