The Costs Are Rising

[Gene C]

When we went to Springfield, that was one of the things so amazing about Joe Di Cola. That man never met a stranger. People were coming up to us while he was telling the history in front of Lincoln's home and joining in on the discussion and asking questions, which he happily answered. He met a group of students coming into the motel and was talking and sharing with them about their day and what to see tomorrow. What an encouraging teacher. You could here and feel the love he has for Lincoln in his voice. He is an amazing guide. I will always have fond memories of that trip. It was a privilege to be with you Joe!
