I am so sorry to hear of Joe's passing.
I worked with him many years and have many good memories. He once talked his brother into parting with a ""MRA-Royal Hotel" print , which I still cherish, it reminds me of Joe each time I look at it. He loved his work. He was kind , joyful and dedicated. I had a hard time convincing him to retire. Every time I bumped into him after, he was happy.
I hope your memories of a life well lived, help you through this difficult time.

Please accept our heartfelt sympathy for your loss. I met Joe on my first day of work on seventh floor at Saint Joseph’s Hospital in December of 1972. I remember Joe as so welcoming that I knew I would love it there. Always free to offer help, he also had a great of humor that I often think of him with a smile. My husband was also fortunate to meet him and we will keep him in our thoughts and prayers. Condolences, Liz & Mike Moreau
