WHAT a pleasure it was to have Joe in my life! He was such an unassuming man with a piercing intelligence and a quick, dry wit. I will never forget our conversations about derivatives :)
Thank you, Joe, for the precious gift of your friendship. God Bless!
Thinking of you, with love,
Your Gourmet buddy, Betsy
