I was a waitress at Arbor Rose for almost two years and Joe made every day better. He always had a hug, a smile, and a "good morning, honey!" for me. He was the first person whose name I learned, because he always wanted a cuppa joe. I am so sorry to hear of his passing. May you all find solace knowing he is now at peace.

Don & Kathy & Family,
So sorry to hear of Uncle Joe's passing.
May the healing light of Christ shining within you be a source of peace and comfort. You are not alone.
When our hearts are broken.. Christ is our light.
In loving memory,
Marge Litteral
