It had been a few years since I'd seen Joe, but I carry many fond
memories of him, from way back in his school days.
I'd like to offer my sincere condolences to his family and friends.
He left us way too young!

Joe and I were fellow police academy cadets in 1978. I appreciated his wit, candor, and his economy of words. I am privileged to count him as a friend. He is already missed.
