Joe was the best neighbor any could ask for. He was such a wonderful n sweet man. The summers are gonna be a little less brighter without him. May he rest among the angels and say hi to my mom while you're up there. Love you Joe.

Joe was so precious. He never forgot to call me on Brian’s and my birthday. I will never forget the times he came to North Dakota to see us. I hope Brian and he are having a great time. May God and his angels bless and keep the Downes and Anelli families comforted and safe. You are loved.
