Dr. Joe H. Carnley

I still miss my buddy Joe Joe

I was reminiscing with a great friend this morning about Dr. Joe. He was such an inspiration and guide. His words will stay with me.

Joe put me through Dale Carnegie, as a student and instructor. In the managing stress section, he always related his motto, "Lord don't let me stop living before I die." I can't count the number of times I've passed that on and reminded myself of the example he set. Joe never stopped living then, and lives on now in the lives he touched with the way he lived.

Joe was very like able and friendly to everyone he met. He was always smiling and shell always be missed by those who know him. He loved flying his old airplanes I miss him very much. Fly your way Joe way up in the heavens. May God bless you and your family.

Happy birthday! I miss you and love you!

Joe Joe,
How I miss you so much. You brought so much joy and happiness in moms (Tina Anderson) and my life. You were the best man with the most positive attitude to ever come in our lives. I will never forget the love that you and mom shared. You made us the luckiest ladies in the world. I'm so glad that you had mom by your side through all of this. I wish we could have you back. You were the best stepdad ever! I wish I could see you come through the door one more time calling for the...

Dr Carnley was my dentist for 17 years, even after I relocated to northern Michigan. A true professional, he gave patients his home phone number and at least twice met me in emergencies after hours and before hours at his office. He enjoyed remembering a summer job in the cherry orchards of Traverse City. "I've never been in such cold water (Lake Michigan)or been so sick" (from eating too many cherries). My husband and I will miss his good humor and bright approach to life.

Dr. Carnley you can have all the ice cream you want, even chocolate.
