    RIP IN PEACE: Joe Hammeke
    An '80s kid from Omaha, Nebraska, Joe fell in love with skateboarding in a time when you really had to want it and eventually made it to the mag. He also ripped! He was sweet man and a true skater. We will miss him terribly. Our love goes out to his family and many, many friends.
