Joey and I grew up in Huntinton, CT in the 50s and 60s on Isinglass Road. We played a lot of baseball in those days. His dad was one of our coaches. Parents shared many carpool. A quiet and serious mate loving the outdoors. Though we lost touch ill remember the good times. RIP OLD FRIEND

My condolences. I worked for MAJ Popadic when he was the S3 for the 4157th. He was a great officer, and a great boss.

I knew Joe as a kind and patient man. He taught me grading at LSU and later became my coworker at BREC. We walked many miles of proposed trail and checked out several potential canoe launch sites. The projects he worked on here at BREC will provide recreational assets for the public for years to come.
I will miss his knowledge, enthusiasm, and friendship.
