I haven’t worked with Joe in over 14 years, but I remember him and his mentorship fondly and it seems like just yesterday we were in the office together.  He would be helping me resolve and/or understand a detail, or looking for a design solution/vendor in a Sweets catalogue.  I remember him giving me tax advice too!  So many wonderful moments but one of my fondest memories together was almost 20 years ago - when I was Mrs Claus and he was Santa at the BLM holiday party. The kids justloved him! Rest In Peace sweet Joe. You will be missed.
