Not sure what to say?

I too remember many events, including sunrise services, where Joe and Estelle sang with beautiful harmony. That harmony was also lived out in thier long life together; a Godly example of a Christian marriage. I'm quite certain that he will be missed but heaven welcomed home a true Christian warrior. May God bless and hold closely his grieving family.

Charlie, John and I are sending our sincere peace for you and your family at this time of loss. I never met your dad but you look so much like him!

One of the absolute greats in our town ~ what a contributor, person of faith, and fun guy to be in choir with at church ~ we remember the "Stony Creek Four Fathers" and their excellence ~ in prayer for Estelle, Jenny, Linda, Charlie, and their entire family this day

Early in my ministry in Orland, Joe and Estelle sang a duet in worship. From my seat behind them as they stood at the pulpit microphone, I could see Joe reach for Estelle's hand as they sang. It was a beautiful moment.

To the Edgar family. I am so sorry to hear of Joe's passing. May he rest in peace. One of my favorite people of all while growing up in Orland.The Orland community has lost one of it's best.

I first met Joe when he worked with my father at T.M. Duche'. Always a gentleman and easy to talk to. He was well known and respected in the nut industry. He and Estelle sang at my wedding in 1985 and despite "retiring" from singing, paid a wonderful tribute to my mother by singing at her funeral in 2009. We always felt honored that they continued to send us Christmas cards over the years. God Bless and keep you Joe.

So sorry for your loss. He was a Godly man, a family man, and a community minded man, a fine example to all. Thinking of you. Bob and Merry Goings

RIP Joe

I was very saddened by Joe's passing. He and Estelle sang at my wedding 46 years ago as well as many other events I was involved with. He and Estelle were and still are the couple my husband and I strive to copy. May you all know how wonderful he was and the impact he made on many lives. God Bless all of you in your sorrow.
