I will always remember Joe as a gentleman and an extraordinary volunteer on behalf of HCC. Whether serving on the HCC Board of Trustees, on the Alumni Council, on the "Wayfinding" committee, or as Master of Ceremonies at the Distinguished Alumni Award Dinner, Joe was always generous with his time...
