My heart definitely goes out the the family and friends of such a distinguished Man. My time knowing Joe was short. However, I never met a man that admired being apart of the craft as much as him. He made many sacrifices to help lodges grow in this area. The Masonic fraternity will really miss him. Eva you are a strong person, may God continue to be with you and the family through your lost.
