It is with a very heavy heart that I have to write this message. Joe was my co-worker for 27.5 years but more importantly he was also a friend for almost 32 years. We shared many conversations, laughs and beer through Hot Rod road trips, dinners, staff coffee breaks and parties. His wide circle of friends and acquaintances is a testament to the kind and honest man he was. Sending love and strength to his extended families.
