It's been 3 years since Jane passed and I still miss her beautiful presence. We reconnected after 50 years as close friends like time had not taken place. She was one of a kind. Let her memory continue to linger in our hearts with much gratitude for knowing her. My sincere love to her son, daughter and grandchildren. Dr. Davele Bursor "Davvy"

Joe, I´m not sure if you remember me from when I was with the Daily Press 1972-76, but I remember you well as a young but very skilled attorney. I was delighted to learn that you served as mayor for 14 years. My deepest condolences regarding the passing of your wife. She was I am sure a great human being (though I never met her). Regards, Greg Feller Raleigh NC [email protected]
