Joe was one of a kind. He is directly responsible for much of my development as a manager. He would often tell me, "That's Management 101" when sharing insights. We had so many laughs (and a few disputes) but his loyalty was unmatched. My sincerest condolences to Lili, Sarah, Eliana, and Gerardo, all of whom he spoke so fondly and with devotion. With warmest regards...

Joe was one of my favorite co-workers in Bridgeport, from 1981 to 1986.He taught me the system with a smile on his face and always had a kind word for the new guy (me). May his memory be for a blessing.
