ODe to Joe:

We've had our share of breaks and spills
Of that we can be sure.
From the Penthouse to the Pool
The "doctor" had a cure.

When there was fire or flood or ice, one number for to call
Our 9-1-1 was always heard, and Joe was on the ball.

With age, o'er time, a house doth creak,
Our building heaved a sigh -

To some, this "concrete anti-Christ"
Made noise enough to die.

And o'er the din came threats and sneers,
United naysayers all,

The "Joy Luck Club" brought vaudeville back

While rumors filled the hall!

Of all the milestones, big or small,
We raised our standards high -

Whether Com Ed, or even AT & T
No matter what they bring

Our Camelot was you, dear friend,
And all your schedul-ing.

Our values soared sky high these years
With Lancelot, our King!
