I was just looking up Joe online and I saw this. I worked with Joe over 20 years ago. He did me a big favor once. He was also very funny. My heart goes out to his family and friends. Rest in Peace, Joe.

He is at peace now. He fought a hard and long fight. He cheated death a few times but it finally took him in the end. He is at peace with is maker and he was such a force in everone's lives. It was a wonderful life for him, though short. May his parents and family and his dear wife keep his memory in their hearts forever.
