I remember Joe, he was a great fun guy, he loved his family and Adored his grandson, my nephew Luke Poole, I know he also has a granddaughter Lola and I am sure he adored her as much. I hadn't seen him in a while but I know he was struggling with his health, I am thankful that he isn't suffering anymore and he is in Gods hands now. I am praying for his family, I know he will be missed dearly.
