Uncle , you were more than an uncle to me and my brothers. Throughout our lives, we could always count on you and Aunt Donna. Whenever anyone needed help, you were the first to offer and the last to leave. There are certain people in everyone's life that you quietly respect and admire. That is what you are to me! I will miss you very much.

Donna & Family,

I know Joe will be missed as you know we have been neighbors for 36 years. I always knew if I ever needed anything I could run over and Joe would be right there to help me.
He was a wonderful man, kind neighbor, loving husband and father. He was so proud of Chelsea going to college and loved her unconditionally.
I was blessed to know him. He is with God and all of his angels now. Rest in Peace my friend.

Love Barb Sayer
