Two things,,,first I did get a little sad at this calender date: I really did grow up with Joe on the radio starting with "Jim and Joe on the radio" while running back and forth to the fridge to get my grandfather another Wiedemann. He is known for being the youngest player in MLB history, a patron like figure to all of Hamilton-Fairfield, The thousands of calls from PR/Dave Palone to the 1990 game 3 10th finish all the way down to the mundane grind of LOSER GAMES resulting in Marty and Joe talking about Tomato patches and Elvis memoribilia!

Who at 700 WLW has more hours on the mic? Last time I looked, Joe
was a radio man!
Second, a person I also love is Andy Mac. I heard him on Bill's show and the 55KRC cut where Andy called X beating the no.1 ranked UC team. His voice reminded me of Joe's roast and and of better times...
Joe's passing is indeed human:familiar to all of us. That doesn't make it any less painful...
