Uncle Joe loved and was well loved by his family and friends and anyone who knew him. He lived a good life and we'll never know how many thousands of lives he touched by giving generously of himself. Thank you, Uncle Joe.
He was the uncle that everyone wanted to have and we were blessed to have him in the Pratt family. The Angels are welcoming you home.

Joe P...everyone KNEW who that was, whether they had met you or had just heard your name.
You were one of my favorite gentlemen from very early on. I saw that sense of purpose in your program.
I thought I was terminally unique the night I received my first of your calling cards. Someone told me, 'you know he gives many of those away at every meeting'.
Joe, thank you. Just simply thank you. I know west side will not be the same.
Love and prayers to all who knew you, in our loss.
