Joe was a great man and will be missed dearly. Fly High Joe!
He knew how to make folks laugh and he will be greatly missed by many but I know he will look down on us with a big smile. Rip my friend!
Joe was my buddy and he sure could make a girl laugh. His friendliness, compassion for others and love for his Mary Lou will never be forgotten.
Fly high, Joe! May you have eternal peace and send Mary signs so that she may find a little comfort until you meet again ❤
