Ever since I moved away, I've always told people down here that nothing will ever compare to the neighbors in the Foot. Yeah there are nice people everywhere, but not like the people in Mahanoy Plane. And Joe was the perfect example of that. He would give the shirt off his back to help anyone who needed help. And every time I came home to visit he'd have a big hug and was excited to hear how I was doing. Cathy, Joe, Jan, Jason, their families and all the grandkids are in my heart and prayers. He will be greatly missed.

Well Hoser where should I start. You have been such a big part of my life my whole life. I am going to miss you every day for the rest of my life. You have been so good to me and I loved you more than you'll ever know. I find comfort in knowing that you knew just how much I loved you because there was never a time we were'nt in each other's company that we didn't say it. I could not have asked for a better uncle. I know you are at peace now being reunited with Jeremy. Rest in peace uncle Joe, love you, Your BEDEALIA! Aka Nina
