The smile, the laugh, the “my-my-my” and the passion of the mission were so embodied that I knew I was honored to be with such a man on the Great March. The one specific story was when I was assigned to the Local Economic Development Team of the 232 Replication Campaign in Maharashtra. It was my assignment was to figure out how to triple the income of our chosen villages (that is another story and a great life lesson!), and I had never been in a Consult. It came time to meet the strategic objective of finishing the task of putting a demonstration village in the remainder of the 25 Districts, which would require everyone to be on a Consult team. It felt like it must have been when all the cooks had to grab their rifle and head to the front lines in WW II! So off I went to a village called Narayan Chinchole. I was the first to arrive and Cyprian was to arrive to lead it. I knew nothing! I helped Jim Patterson in the pre-work, but as the day was approaching I was panicked as to who was going to lead this! So I rushed to the telegraph office and sent Joe a telegram that called for HELP! I was so naive that I thought he would get it, but it arrived two weeks later. It was a painful Consult and it was clear to me and just about everyone else that we were <u class="">way</u> over our heads in so many of the Consults done that week. I thought there was going to be a mutiny when all returned and the reports we made. General Joe just stood there, like Patton, and received it all. No apology, just “let’s keep moving”! </div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">Now the “three Joe’s” are together, patiently waiting for the rest of the Blue Shirts to arrive so we can all walk into heaven together!</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">Thank you Joe!</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">Jack</div><div class=""><br class=""><div><blockquote type="cite" class=""><div class="">On Mar 22, 2016, at 1:48 PM, Doris Hahn via Dialogue <<a href="mailto:dialogue@lists.wedgeblade.net" class="">dialogue@lists.wedgeblade.net</a>> wrote:</div><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"><div class=""><div dir="ltr" class="">Dear Bill, Joanne, and John,<div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">It is hard to imagine being the child of Joe Slicker! What a man! In many ways, he was so tough, but inside there was deep concern and spirit. I remember being in a group called, "Research Centrum" that he led in the early 70's. This was during the time that The Man of La Mancha film was really popular. Our group met at eight o'clock every morning, and yes, every morning, Joe had us sing, "The Man of La Mancha." At first I thought it was rally hokey, but as the quarter progressed, the words and music became more important to everyone. It turned out to be a real spirit exercise, that I think only Joe could have pulled off.</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">In gratitude for Joe's life,</div><div class="">Doris Hahn</div></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br class=""><div class="gmail_quote">On Tue, Mar 15, 2016 at 4:06 PM, Joanne Mulcahy via OE <span dir="ltr" class=""><<a href="mailto:oe@lists.wedgeblade.net" target="_blank" class="">oe@lists.wedgeblade.net</a>></span> wrote:<br class=""><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: arial, helvetica, sans-serif;" class=""><div class="">
