I had the pleasure of meeting Joe when I worked in Orlanda with Beth. I send the entire family my heartfelt sympathies. He was a good and great man; he and Liz treated other people with dignity and friendship. They were a 'magic' couple with love and kindness. This world has lost 2 great people. Rest in peace Joe.

Joe, Beth & Kellie, Louise & i are so, so sorry to hear about Your Dad. I found out yesterday by trying to send an email to check if he was prepared for the hurricane.
As you all know Joe and I spent many hours traveling and working together over the years and had #'s of War Stories. He was a great Guy and I am proud to have been a friend. I will miss him

We get repeated chances to learn, that life is not about us!
Take comfort in knowing, that earth has no sorrow, that HEAVEN cannot heal.
I met Joe thru Liz, our piano teacher. Later he was always up for small talk.
May God bless his family in Christ's name AMEN
R.I.P.
My Condolences.
