Joe was my guy for over 10 years.. I recently left TSA and Joe was one of the first to congratulate me for “getting out” lol. I had many conversations with Joe about many things. One thing I know about Joe is that he loved his family. This is still a shock to me, so I can only imagine how the family feels. I will continue to pray for you all and will never forget my guy Joe.

It was a true honor to protect the Homeland at DHS with Joe. It was more honorable getting to know Joe the man. Joe loved and cared about his work and always wanted it done right. He always spoke highly of his wife and his love for her. Joe strengthened and encouraged me often when I shared personal battles with him. He will be truly missed on this side of eternity! Rest easy my brother, and save me a spot at the table!
