Laurie, we send you and your family our deepest and most caring sympathy. We are pleased that your husband's legacy will be honored through a medical student scholarship fund in his name at the American Medical Association Foundation.

Dear World: We have just lost one of the great ones. Joe did so many important and beautiful things for so many people. And he did it with his laughing, loving smile. I am so glad that I recently reconnected with Joe after too long a hiatus. I miss you already. Ed Feldstein February 17th, 2022

Laurie - I am so sorry to hear this sad and unexpected news. He will be missed and his ability to include everyone in his big tent is irreplaceable.

I am so sorry for your loss. Joe and I worked on HIMSS together and he was the sweetest, kindest soul. Rest In Peace sweet soul.
