To the Ruwe family: I had the pleasure of working with Joe for over 20 years at Columbia Sussex. He was a joy to work with and someone I could count on during some of the crazy times we had. I was fortunate to have known him. In your time of sorry I hope its is some small comfort knowing that Joe had a very position influence on a great many people, of whom I was one.
