Always seen out on a countryside hike or dashing here and there with a book or brush in hand Joe nevertheless takes time to greet everyone with a cheerful smile or some obscure bit of philosophy An ardent student of fine arts, he ever manages to keep at least one of the Muses busy. Although he deftly wields a palette and camel-hair brush, Red is more commonly heralded as our local poet laureate and authority Francis Thompson. Cheerful and talented as he ls, w know that Joe will be a successful son of St. Francis in the habit of the Capuchin.
