Not sure what to say?

I served in the state legislature in the 1980s and early 1990s and Joe was one of the kindest and most respected and effective lobbyists with whom I had the pleasure of working.

I worked with Joe when I was with the Unitedway. He was a remarkable caring person with a smile that would light up the room. God Bless
