Truly a Legend.

I got the opportunity to meet him years ago. Shared a beer and a few stories. That guy was as smart as they come!

R.I.P. Joe.

There is another post in the race section.

Some personal accounts shared by members who knew him.

I knew that he was doing some stuff down south recently. Was surprised to hear of his death today. Surgery is always a flip of the coin.

Rest in Peace Joe, you never stopped thinking.
