In Memoriam - Joe Drabyak

Joe Drabyak, bookseller extraordinaire, past President of the New Atlantic Independent Booksellers Association, friend and mentor to many, sadly passed away on August 27th, 2010. 

He will be sorely missed, but never forgotten. We all pray he's in a better place now, reading a "Joe Pick", and making recommendations to all that are with him. Rest In Peace, Joe.
