Not sure what to say?

Mr T was a great principal and boss at Dale Mabry Elementary. He will be greatly missed.

My thoughts and prayers are with the family. Joe was. a neat fellow and a wonderful professional associate

Dearest Teresa, Tyler, and Jordan,
Joe, valued friend and colleague for many years, always brought humor and energy with him. A respected educator, I relied on his experience and knowledge in his many roles in Hillsborough County Schools and in the Credit Union. It is so hard to believe he is gone. The world is a poorer place without him. John and I send our love to you.

Teresa, Tyler, and Jordan

Broken heart today.... A giant of a friend, mentor, professional. Way too soon. He made me grow well beyond myself. Our family was so enriched by Mr. T.
While he is free of his pain, we gasp for the enormity of this loss.
Love to Teresa and "his boys". BJ and Craig

Rest in peace Mr. T. Thank you for the pleasure of having worked along side of you at Dale Mabry Elementary.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you. Our sincere condolences.

Joe convinced me to go into education. He gave me my first teaching job and was always a mentor, a friend, and role model. I would not be a principal today if it weren't for his faith in me. Many of the things I do at my school today I learned form Joe at Mitchell and Dale Mabry Elementary. I will always be grateful he gave me a chance. Thank you Joe. Rest in peace

Joe was such a wonderful principal and my children ,Christopher and Tricia thrived under his leadership at Mitchell Elementary. Teresa , I know how much you and your family will miss him but thank you for sharing him with so many other families who benefited from his guidance
