I worked on the 7th floor of Bellefield Towers with Joe, we used to have a conference room and every year for the 7th floor Christmas party we would arrive to find the room magically transformed by Joe's wonderful decorations. Joe always had a smile on his face and he is sadly missed on the 7th floor.. Even now his name plate is still on his door, I think taking it down means he's really gone and no one wants that to be true.
