I was so sorry to hear about Joe. He and Edith were the nicest people. He wanted to take care of everyone and it was my pleasure to look after them for awhile. I loved them both and they are missed everyday.

I am sorry to hear of Joe's passing. I had the pleasure of working with and learning the insurance business from Joe. He was the consumate insurance professional; detailed, intellegent and motivated. He was also a great joke teller, golfer and family man. My heart goes out to Edyth and family. I hope your great memories give you comfort in this sad time.
