As the days and weeks pass, and as you return to life's routine, may you continue to feel comforted by the love and support of God, family and friends. Please find comfort in the words found at Isaiah 61:1,2.

I worked with Joe at Sun Microsystems in the New York office in the early '90s. I worked as Systems Engineer (SE) on Joe's account during that time: Goldman Sachs. Joe was tireless in bringing quality to our customers, and he did it with grace, and class, and good cheer. He always treated colleagues with respect. I appreciated working with him, and am proud of our achievements. Rest well, Joe!
