We are so sorry for the loss of Uncle Joe. Back in the day it wasn’t Christmas without him recording every Christmas tree at grandpa’s house on his movie camera. He was always so kind and generous to us. Now he’s together again with Aunt Nancy, my mom, their brothers, and parents. Rest In peace.

I thank Joe and his wonderful family for my opportunity to meet all of you. Joe shared his faith, many family stories and a multitude of great movies with me. He said “I’m NOT afraid, I just don’t know when I’m going”. Well Joe you made it !!! I know Heaven is singing and rejoicing. Your bride I’m sure was waiting at the gate. Until we meet again. Thank you so much for your knowledge and kindness. Yvette

My Sympathies go out to My Nieces and Nephews. Joe was a wonderful "Brother-in-Law" through out these years after My Sister Nancy passed in 1997. His smile and jokes will be greatly missed! I was very lucky to see him before our Family Reunion in August.
