R I P my friend

Bridget, Joseph, Mary Katherine & Maggie,
Paul and I are devastated with the passing of Joe. I will never forget the day you moved in on Campbell Court with Lexie and I knocking on your door to introduce our selves. That began a nearly 12+ year friendship.
May you find solace knowing how proud he was of each and every one of you.
Please accept our deepest sympathies.

Paul & Judi Kennedy

I am extremely saddened to learn of Joe's passing today. My heart goes out to Bridget and the kids. You will be in our prayers. I'm sorry I missed his service as I just found out today 3/3/25.

I am so sorry to hear about Joe‘s passing. I worked with Joe at Virtua. Joe was a very kind man.

So sorry to hear about Joe’s passing. I worked with Joe on a few IT projects - loved discussing all things BBQ (Joe inspired me to buy his favorite Pit Boss smoker), Jeeps and his Christmas decor and wiring arrangements. A great human who will be greatly missed. My sincere condolences to the Collins family.

To the Collins family,

I am so sorry to hear of the loss of Joe.
We had worked together at Virtua.
Thoughts and prayers grom my heart for this sad loss.

Bridget and all the family, I was so sorry to hear of your loss. May you all remember the good memories.

I am so terribly sorry for your loss. I may not have known Joe terribly well, but I will say every time I saw him there was a smile on his face and love in his heart. I will always remember standing outside with him in the cul-de-sac on Halloween. Again, he always was smiling and had a story to tell. I can only hope that someday your tears and heartache will turn to laughs and wonderful memories that you were able to share. My very deepest condolences.

We will never forget scaring the kids together on Halloween and how much fun we all had! Also Joe running outside in the snow in shorts and a tshirt. He so loved Christmas and the snowfalls. Riding around in his truck looking at the Christmas lit houses. We also will never forget his booming voice, incredible upbeat personality and infectious smile! He was always the life of the party!

Joe truly was one of a kind and loved by all who were blessed to know him!

We are...
