James "Joe" Collins

Peace continue to be with Joe and his family. Out of sight but never from our hearts.

So sorry to hear of his passing. He brought me together with my wonderful sisters in 2001 after 53 years. I will never forget him.

Thank you, Joe, for being a fellow traveler on my life's journey and the finding my estranged father for me so I could put closure to years of heartache. You were one of God's chosen ones R.I.P

Mary and Michael,
Joe wanted to turn his life around and he did just that. In doing so, he turned many other lives around, for the better! He is missed and admired by so many! May he rest in the arms of the Lord.
My Sympathy,

Dave and i worked with Joe for 6 years in Guatemala . He showed us the true meaning of making a difference in this world " one starfish at a time"! You will be missed by so many people in so many different walks of life. Rest well, our friend.

Mary, just heard about joe. My sympathy to you and Michael. I would have liked to have been with you, but heard too late. I'll try to get in touch.

We were both lucky to have known Joe for the last 20 years. His quick wit and humor will be missed. On arriving at the GATES of Heaven I know a group of bagpipers were playing just for Joe
Til we meet again Joe, you are in our prayers always

Mary & Michael
Very sorry to hear about Joe.Have quite a few great memories at the pub with all of you .God Bless.

Joe was a wonderful man full of humulity and grace. I learned much from him and was lucky to have worked with From Houses to Homes for the past 7 years. He modeled for me how to make a differnce in the world and I will continue to support his efforts in Guatemala. Joe you will be missed and thanks for getting many of us started on a path to help others less fortunate than ourselves.
