I worked with Joe early in my business career when working for C&S.Joe was always pleasant to be with - quiet, thoughtful and interested in what was going on with you. I was only at C&S for two years 1968-1970, but always remembered what a nice person Joe was. Please accept my sincere sympathy for your loss.
