Joe - a mentor, a friend, a proud independent liberal, a father-figure, a big brother, a philosopher, a great citizen. A life-force that is still felt even after he left us. Much love, robert holmes

I liked Joe's intense eyes and smile, his conversation and stories, and his calm, personification of "be-here-now".

During the last months of having Joe with us I was fortunate enough to be able to spend a few hours once or twice a week with him. The friendship we developed will stay with me forever as will the very empty place in my heart now that hew has gone to a better place. Watch over us Joe, we need all the help we can get, and know you are missed so very much and loved as much. B

I miss the man.
I sat on his lap and licked his hand.
We both knew he was going away,
it could have come any day.
But when he left, I still was sad.
Most of you know I called him dad.
But be assured that this I know--
a dog’s love is eternal.
You as a young man in 1941.

Joseph was so full of vitality and life and such a creative and fun-loving man. I remember his large and warm hugs and smiles, his enthusiasm over drawing and his good advice on managing back pain. I will miss him. Sharon Butler

Joseph:
Deep Peace of the running wave to you,
Deep Peace of the flowing air to you,
Deep Peace of the quiet earth to you,
Deep Peace of the shining stars to you,
Deep Peace of the gentle night to you,
Moon and stars pour their healing light on you,
Deep Peace to you.
