I caught myself reaching for the phone to call you like I always did. You have come to me in my dreams. I see guys who resemble you and think of you. I drive by EDD and think of you. You are a lengend there. No one will ever give the way you did. It was from your heart and soul. You taught me so much. I still remember advise you gave me on a situation and I am thankful for your help. You were like a dad to me. You took care of me. I am so blessed I got the chance to tell you how...

To Father's Heart From Daughter's Heart:

My Knight in buckskin with a coon hat on a horse named Whiskey. As I hold my arm up with one sweep as he rode by, I would be sitting behind him with my arms around his waist.

With the wind in our hair and the sun setting, on us we talked and laughed at the dudes on wagon train. As he sat squarely in his sattle, the reins in one hand the other hand on his thigh and that smile that melted a lot of young ladies hearts, the bright eyed...

Joey carries a spot in my heart that is very special and has always been remembered as a dear friend. He will be missed.

It is with great sadness that I say good bye to a true and sincere friend. Joe was a rare and genuine soul who stood in bright contrast against our pretend world and I admired him.

I will really miss Joe. He was always so willing to help and share a smile. He made everyone feel welcome and will be missed by everyone. My prayers and thoughts will be with his family and friends.

I will always remember what a good worker Joe was when I was his Supervisor for Sacramento County Highway Department. My heart goes out to Joes family. When I retired and left California I did not leave my memories of many friends.

I enjoyed knowing Joe and working with him for many years at the EDD. He had a good sense of humor and many a story. I know he was amazed when he discoved that I actually knew where Jarbidge Nevada was and had been there. I am so sorry for your loss. He will be greatly missed.
