Not sure what to say?

I will always remember Uncle Joe and his exterior gruffiness. He was such a fun person to be around even when he wanted you to think otherwise. I think my best memory of him is when he came to the Hampton Roads area for a reunion with his Army buddies. He was so jovial and knew everybody. Before Mike and I left he made sure that we knew them and that they knew us as well. He was a great guy and we will miss him always.

I am Sue Norvill Jaquess, a cousin of Joe's. Joe's dad and my dad Jess were brothers, and both did oilfield work for a number of years. Uncle Joe and Aunt Bess had three children, Fred, Joe, Jr., and Ruth. They were some of our very favorite relatives, whom we saw and visited with frequently over the years. My dad Jess married Inez and produced three offspring also--Red, Don, and Sue.

One of my favorite stories of our early life on a farm near Ada, Oklahoma, involved a visit to...

Miss you a great deal. Our fond memories of our visit together in Berlin in 2000.

Baker, I have several memories of Pop, all good. Such as being a War Hawk, breaking free, running down an open field as hard as I could and seeing Pop leading me by 5 yards, carrying many more years and lbs! The trip the boys and I made to get you in Carolina and Pop answering the door at 2 am in his sleeping gown, or not! Pop always having to buy our meals even when his main entree was his "button"...
Love you brother,
Fred

Harry,
Please know of our prayers for you and your family. May God's strength sustain you and give you rest. Love, Chuck and Robbin Miles

Joe, so sorry that you had to leave us. I will always remember you as my friendly customer at the snack bar in Berlin. My family, friends and neighbors who met you when you where here in Colorado for the reunion miss you as well. But memories will always be in our hearts. Love Gerda

Farewell Joe,

You were a soldier's soldier. Your dedication to your comrades will never be forgotten. When the 50/50 number was drawn for an outstanding member you are the winner

I very well remember my big cousin Joe, Jr. In my childhood, my sister, Janelle (Janie), and I spent a lot of time with grandparents, Jess and Inez Norvill at Pickett, rurual community located west of Ada, Oklahoma. This was when they still lived in their old farm house. Perhaps I was there a bit more because Janie started school and I was home with Gran so she could babysit me while Mom was in college.

As kids, some of our very best times were when relatives came to...

Please accept our deepest sympathies.
