I worked with Joe at KeyBank, Enterprise Development, and JumpStart Inc. He was one of my best friends. We worked very hard together and his presence and humor kept us going and laughing through the tough times at work. Our favorite time together was on Friday's when we would spin up a playlist of standards featuring the Rat Pack and many other great artists. We'd often sing along as we did our work and others in the office enjoyed coming into the Finance office to share in the revelry. During football season, Joe would often crank up the Ohio State fight song as he was an avid fan. There are too many stories to tell, but my heart is full of memories of us laughing together, often to the point of tears. We were brothers in arms as well, he US Navy and me USMC. I cannot thank him enough for being such a great friend. He added so much good to my life and I will miss him tremendously, but the joy that he provided will remain with me forever. Good luck and Godspeed Lieutenant! 'Til we meet again brother, with love - Rich Jankura, Richfield, OH
