Joe was a dear friend to my mom, Yvette Sadovsky. After mom moved from Westmont to downtown Chicago, Joe would visit her just about every week. They really enjoyed each other's company.

He was a special, kind person. We didn't agree on politics, but I loved him.

So sorry to hear about Joe. He was my wine buddy - we would always meet at the wine table and discuss which one was the best to try. We also shared friends and family at Morton High School and enjoyed talking about Berwyn together, and German food that he liked. We also enjoyed talking about the Navy. May he Rest In Peace and will miss my wine buddy.
