Terry and I were so sorry to hear of Joe's passing. He was a good friend in high school and always loved a fun party. Terry was a groomsman in his wedding but we lost contact when we moved to Sebastopol. He was truly a very kind and wonderful man. I wish I would have sent him more cookies and candy during his tour in Vietnam, something I will always regret. Our sympathy to his brothers and family.
