So sorry to see this. I had the pleasure of coaching Joe for 4 years at St Ed’s. What a great kid. Always found a way to have fun. Always polite and always did the right thing. It’s so hard to believe that he has gone to heaven at such a young age. He was a big part of a very good team and I will always have fond memories of those four years I was blessed to know him. My condolences to all who got to know him.
