I have only fond memories of Joe. He was one of my first personal fitness clients. Always diligent about his health, kind, funny, and a welcome adviser. My sincerest sympathies go to Alma, Carol, and the rest of the family. Godspeed Joe!

Sorry for your loss. Love Bettina and Bobby Pressman

Joe will be fondly remembered for his razor-sharp intellect, his benevolence toward one and all, his tactful diplomacy in every situation and his generosity of spirit and resources.

We will miss Joe as a gentle and kind-hearted personal friend and a trusted friend to Switzerland, where he served his own country with dedication and distinction. It was a privilege to have known Joe and enjoyed many a dinner, artfully co-hosted with his delightfully charming Alma, that fostered friendships and opened doors. With our heart-felt condolences to Alma and family, Manuel and Christine Sager
