Loss of a Crew Member

Over the weekend, when Pete LaRoque was back at the house to work on some of the outstanding issues, he also brought with him the sad news that one of the guys who'd been here working was killed recently. While Joe was no longer employed with LaRoque Construction, he is certainly remembered here for being a part of the project almost all the way through, and for being a pretty genuinely nice and interesting guy. The one feature of the house that is most his is the arch over the tub area in the master bathroom.

As I understand it, Joe was up in Maryland on a site where a tree was being cut or trimmed, and a limb came down on him. He leaves behind a wife and two small children, I believe.
