Brooke and I tried to call Joe and when we found the phone was disconnected we saw in the obits that we lost Joe. The last time we spoke must have been shortly before he died. He was a little confused at the time but that was understandable considering his age. Very sorry we didn’t know about this at the time. Has there been a memorial service?
