Dr. Joe quite literally, saved my life. His sitting with a patient , he explained, is best way to observe his patients with a keen eye. He was my mentor, shrink and friend. Always remembered. Love and peace, Jennifer Hofmann

He loved his bike rides down the shore and shared his passion by always taking old friends and new friends along.
