I had the privelege of working with Joe as a caregiver at his previous facility;I was impressed by his spirit and independence, and his family's attentiveness. I had hoped he would have had more time to spend in the South after leaving us up here in New York State; I hope the time he had was rewarding to all. I shall not forget Joe Beckwith anytime soon, and hope his family can take comfort in their memories of him.
