a precious man! Sending you big hugs and much love!
We were so sorry to hear of Joe’s passing. He was a good man, lots of fun and though we didn’t see you often we will always remember his (and your) generosity and our good times together.
We are so sorry to hear about Joe’s passing. Remembering the fun times at Tishomingo and the great houseboat adventures at Lake of the Ozarks.
Sad to hear the passing of my high school sweetheart! May he Rest In Peace! May his family find peace in that he is with the Lord! I am sure he will be missed by all!
Joe has been one of my oldest and dearest friends. We go back to middle school, high school and even college. It’s so hard to wrap my head around the fact that he is gone. Most of the things I was doing when I was growing up, that I shouldn’t have been doing , joe was there with me. He was just a fun guy. The vacations we took together and the adventures we had together as families will be memories I will keep forever. To say he will be missed is a huge understatement. I can honesty say i loved him as a brother.
