Be Thou At Peace

Well, Joe was one of those rare people who did not have to study and still maxed it, or close enough. when we shared a room I used to look up across our adjacent desks and note him definitely not studying while I was slaving through the mysterious stuff of whatever class. Joe was amazing that way. Always relaxed, good humored, don't sweat it, etc. I never was able to figure out how he did it, but sure as heck, he was a lot smarter than I. Good man.
