JOE DONALD FRIEND Sr.

Dear Dad Friend, I'm looking forward to meeting you when I get home! In some ways I already know you from what my amazing husband Joe Donald Jr. and my beloved Mom ("Momma Jo") have told me about you. How fun it will be to spend eternity with you, and THANK YOU for raising such an exceptional, first-born son, Joe Donald Friend Jr.! I love him totally and completely; he's God's special gift to me, and I continue to take good care of him. He takes EXCELLENT care of me! See you soon. Love, Mary...

May the Lord comfort your family and give you the peace you need now.

The Lord is my rock, my fortress, and my savior; my God is my rock, in whom I find protection. He is my shield, the power that saves me, and my place of safety.
~Psalm 18:2

My heart goes out to you at this time and in the days ahead.

We Loved Joe and your whole family. We will pray that this next step in your life's joouney will be filled with blessings " more than you could every think or imagine" Love you guys-

Barbara and Don , Sorry to here of your loss.

JOE WAS ONE OF MY BEST FRIENDS IN HIGH SCHOOL, WE
PLAYED FOOTBALL AND RAN AROUND TOGETHER , HIS SIZE WAS NEVER AN INDICATION OF HIS HEART.. HE AND
HIS FIRST WIFE, MARTHA, RENTED A ROOM WITH MY MOTHER WHEN THEY FIRST MARRIED. I LOST TOUCH WITH JOE WHEN HE MOVED TO GEORGIA BUT I NEVER LOST MY THE FEELINGS THAT WE SHARED. I AM SORRY TO HEAR OF HIS PASSING AND YOU HAVE MY DEEPEST SYMPATHY FOT YOUR LOSS, I AM SURE HE WILL BE MISSED,
