I have worked with Joe for over 10 years and I considered him a friend. He was so proud of Teresa! Most of our converstaions revolved around his beautiful daughter and her educational acheviements. Joe was a hard worker who always greeted me with a smile and a kind word. I will miss him. My thoughts and prayers will be with your family during these dark days ahead.
