When I was an undergraduate at UAH (1973-1977) I was hired as a student assistant in the office of Dr. Graves, the University's president, and my desk was a few feet away from Joe's. We became good friends and he was a fine mentor. I always enjoyed his sense of humor. I respected and admired him, and I extend my condolences to his family. He was a good man.
