" J O - E - E !!" I would say.
" DEB -B- I - E !!" he would reply.
That was our morning greeting everyday.
Love that guy.
Who and/or what was Joe (that banana guy) Lisicky?
Lunch buddy, kidding around buddy, knew where everything was in the store buddy. My own personal produce concierge. A little tight with the buck buddy. I could go on and on.
Truly, he was a lot of people's buddy.
But most importantly he was my buddy and feel very lucky he and I crossed paths while our time on this earth.
I hadn't worked at Valley for a couple years but friends like him stay in my heart forever. Rest peaceful my friend.

"Like a shooting star across the room, so fast, so far, you were gone too soon."
One of the kindest, sweetest, happiest souls I have ever had the pleasure of calling my friend,despite what obstacles you faced. I do hope you left this world knowing how much you were appreciated and loved and that you left a large hole in our lives and an ache in our hearts ! I will miss your voice, your smile your jokes and your hugs...
~A merry voice, stirring smiles in souls, ever laughing, a desired hope to please. Rousing charity's forgiving love. A life too soon taken from this Earth. Heavy hearts mourn a gift so pure. Shining brightly on, through time, our memories, through us.~

Joey was one of the kindest person I've ever met - always had a smile for all, knew everyones name, and went out of his way to help anyone that needed it.
