John G. Wilson John G. WUsdti, Executive Vice Pre><idetit iu Charge of the AT.4 Victor Division sitice 1!U8, died June 1. Ili'><i "t his home i)i Wynneirood, Pa. >SOX, or "Joe" as he liked to be called, revealed throuKhout his life the real si^'- nificance of friendship. When he passed from our midst in June there was a deep feelinjr of loss and sorrow by all who knew him. One of the preat human exiieriences is to know a man of Joe Wilson's calibre, and I had th:it privilege for twenty years. During that time, we worked td- jrether and no one could have had a better team- mate. Joe was never one to seek the limelipht; he liked to be in the background, and he pained jrreat pleasure in watching others advance through his ability to help them. Personal jrlory had no api)eal for him, for his own requirements were modest. His capacity for work was enormous. He put lonp hours on any job he undertook, and toiled imceas- injfly to reach the objectives which would add to the stature of the company and the success of everyone in it. As a leader he was a master or- ganizer. Yet, in every move he made he never lost the human touch. In creative effort he was demanding: in achievement he was quick to pive full credit to all who coiitril)ute(l to the results. Loyalty was an outstanding attribute of his character. Joe Wilson had a preat heart that pul.<ied with friendship for people in all walks of life. He had an uncanny way of sensinp when someone needed heli>—the shoe-shine boy who required expensive dental treatment . . . the collepe professor for whom he made possible a year of advanced study in California . . . the deservinp pirl he put throuph four years of collepe. These and many other acts of kindness characterized Joe Wilson. He soupht no personal plaudits; in fact, it was ditticult for anyone to exjire.ss appreciation or to thank him for a kind deed because he would turn away almost as if to hide the fact that he had anythinp to do with it. Quietly and without fan- fare, Joe Wilson moved amonp his fellowmen accomplishinp much pood in the world and makinp the lives of others more pleasant. He made the world a briphter jilace for those who knew him. mu/[i4vm^\
