Mrs. Nimrod, Kathy and Family: my sincere sympathy on the loss of your Husband/Father/Grandfather. He was part of the Great Generation that we are losing many of now (my Dad passed away 3 months ago at about the same age). He was faithful and devoted to his family and will be greatly missed.

No matter what the circumstance was Joe always took the time to say hello to all the personal at the project. Joe's was kind hearted and well respected in the construction industry. Joe's legacy will always carry on amongst all of us from the Building Trades.

Joe was a great guy! He was quite generous as an alum to Loyola University Chicago. He helped Loyola and me a lot in the past in making calls to alums seeking gifts for Loyola and also he helped on class reunions. Joe was a very nice man and friend. He will be missed. We are very grateful for what he did for us. On behalf of Loyola University, my condolences to Ann and his great family!
