I am very sorry to hear of the death of Joe McCormick. I attended Resurrection College in Kitchener, Ontario, and Mt. St. Mary´s in Emmitsburg, Maryland with Joe. I attended Mt. St. Mary´s with his brother, Buz. Joe was a great guy, full of life, and a friend to all of our schoolmates. I stayed in touch with Joe when he was a DRE in Washington DC and also after he began selling insurance. I talked to him in recent years and encouraged him to attend our Resurrection reunions. He did attend one and everyone was so pleased to see him. I also talked to him on the phone on other occasions, just to catch up, I will miss our conversations. May he rest in eternal peace.
