Joe Max Orr was a true American hero.
Always calm, thoughtful and speaking words, peppered with wisdom and humor. Joe Max Orr, was a very special soul, his character, rich with the experience that living 100+ years: can gift one with.
Joe was a real hero, both on and off the battlefield. He will be missed, along with his smile, friendship and wisdom, he shared so generously.
At last, he will finally have his one true love, Natasha in his arms again.
Even, if the thought of them together is only in my mind.
I see....Joe, dancing with her, as he was and as she was back then in Casper, Wyoming. Viibrant, young and so in love.
Joe, will be missed.
I will miss him forever.
Rest in peace, dear friend.
Thank you for the time you shared with me and for honoring me with your friendship.
Also, I would like to say, "Thank you" to Carley Dryden for your wonderful article, so thoughtfully written.
It was one of the highlights of his life and he was moved to tears.
He was Front Page news on the Sunday, December 7th edition of, "The Daily Breeze.
You honored him, so beautifully. Words cannot capture what that meant to him and to the people who loved him.
