I’ve known Joe most of my 28 years with the company. Joe was one of the most helpful persons in finding the solution to take care of our customers. No matter how stressful the situation would be he always found a way to make me laugh at the end of our conversations. You will be missed my friend & co-worker. Sympathy to the family & his co-workers. My prayers are with you all.
