My most deepest condolences for the loss of such a sweet and kind man. Rest Peacefully Joe as you join your wife and daughter in Heaven.

My condolences to all who loved this wonderful soul. My years working at Southern Auto Supply with Joe and all of the others there was certainly some of the best years of my life. We weren't merely coworkers ... we were more like family members ... just the way a work environment should be. Joe was a joy to be around ... smiling, laughing, joking, singing and willing to help in any way he could. I will never forget his "smiling" eyes. This world could surely use a lot more of us to set the same type of shining example of what a human being should be in the way Joe always did every day of his full life. He will certainly never be forgotten.
