He was a great guy to work with, even the roughest days went smoother with E.J. He could always find something to joke about and lighten the load. My condolences go out to the family and his multitude of friends, and I'm sorry I was unable to make the trip to bid him a final good-bye. Farewell, old friend, you will be missed.
