Very sad to hear of Joe's passing. He will be missed. He was a great guy to have around the office. I worked with him for years in the IRS and remember him telling me about what he did in his spare time, shopping for antiques and traveling. He was a good man.

Annette,
You do not know me, but I had the privelage of working for Joe. Our time together was brief but he always remained in my memory. He brought joy to my heart at a time when I was down. I will never forget his kind and gentle spirit. Joe was one of the good people that you meet all to rarely in this liftime.
