He will be fondly remembered by his colleagues, employees, associates and customers at Joseph Shamie Sons a family business now closed but where he worked from 1950-1975, and at Design Rubber a company which he founded in 1967 with his partner, the late Stuart Campbell, and ran very successfully until selling it to his "boys" at the office in December 2011.
