Joseph Gene Barone

My condlences to the fanily, Joe was a good man and a great host. I especially appreciated the picnic at Lake Rosland after four years in HI. Joe and Shirley are walking hand in hand again.

Love and condolences to Joe's immediate and extended family. As part of the Paolo "clan", I remember wonderful times at Angie and Domenic's home. Joe was a constant presence with that hearty laugh and beautiful smile. There's a big Italian celebration going on in Heaven to welcome Joe home. We, left on Earth, will miss him more than words can say. Cousin, Paula McNeil

Joe was a great guy. Enjoyed associating with him over the years at beer industry related functions. Have great memories of playing golf many times with Joe.

Uncle Joe was always the life of the party. Whether he was telling jokes, or stories from the past, he always seemed to have a following. He played Santa on Christmas eve while passing gifts out to all of the family, and us kids got to be his elves. He always seemed to have a smile on his face, and greeted everyone with such enthusiasm. Our family has suffered a great loss.

We are thankful to have such a wonderful support system to get through this hard time, and above all we...

Jan and I will miss Joe. He was a dear friend and we are truly sorry to hear of his passing. I'm sure Shirley is happy to see him again.

God Bless you Joe.

John and Jan Phillips

I met Joe just three years ago,when he began dating Judy, and felt like we had been friends forever. He and Judy were so happy together, and we were all so delighted they had found each other. We will miss him dearly.

Joe was a great friend during the time we spent at United Beer--BLITZ--
The most fun job I ever had. Will miss you Joe.

Joe, Shirley, & Toni lived behind us in Milwaukie for MANY years! I can remember his loud laugh and happy smile. I have wonderful, fun memories of our parents having competitions of who could get the most champagne corks onto each others roofs! The BEST neighbors! I know dad (Norm Larson), Shirley, and Joe are whooping it up in heaven. Toni - thoughts and prayers go out to you and your family!
