Shirley....I was so saddened to learn of the death of Joe. I remember him with so many fond thoughts of when Roy was still alive and we all had such good times together on Monday nights in St. Timothy's fellowship hall. I recall, too, the fun luncheons held by Shirley Alexander with your willing help. I thank you for providing me with many joyful memories.......Ginny Winter-Moellenhoff

I am very sorry to learn of Joe Snare's passing. I was also a coworker in the Monsanto finance organization for many years and Joe was always a pleasure to know as an individual and as a professional; always ready to help with any request or just with sage advice. There should be more like him! Joe and his family will be in my thoughts and prayers.
