JOSEPH P. NOONAN

I asked Professor Noonan for a recommendation to business school. I was a little dismayed when I held the letters up to the light, and saw only one short sentence in each. Extremely worried, I opened one of the letters meant for a safety school, and found the following sentence: "This is a smart, hardworking young man, and you should admit him." I wasn't sure what to make of this. I figured I trusted him this far, I might as well go the distance. I guess it worked, as I got scholarship...

Remembering you with kind thoughts...

Sandy, Pat and I were so sorry to hear of Joe's passing. However, we will always have those wonderful memories of the joyful times we had together at Tufts.

Dear Sandy and family, Alex and I were saddened to hear of Joe's passing. He was such a nice man and wonderful father. I hope the love and support of your family and your memories of a wonderful journey together make your days a little easier. God bless you. Sincerely. Pat & Alex
