RIP Trader Joe

Started out trying to complete with a UT graduate in the convenience store space.  Then had a great concept in TJ's, and it really took off 40 years ago when he got into business with two German Bros. named Albrecht.  

My family is a big fan of his store.  He kept a low profile and was very philanthropic, and by all accounts a good guy.  How he helped develop some of the branding concepts of True Religion apparel, I'll never know.  But hey, musta been a well-rounded man.  RIP, Joe.
