As I was watching and listening to his kind and thoughtful words as he greeted the families, I had to think that if it wasn't for this man and the work he did a few hours ago, my small but important 401 k would have been dust yesterday morning. The money we put into SS all of our lives and a few pension sheckles are all many of us retirees have. Thank God for people like Joe who understand this.
