There was and always be one Joe Golinski. I had the privilege to work with Joe at Elfskin Corp. Joe was a man of high character and good humor. Joe kept things going with his wit, good nature and the ability to tell "Tall tales". He was a great friend. I am sure he will be missed by his family and all who knew him. May God bless you and comfort you in your time of sorrow. Jim Gray
