Not sure what to say?

Sending my sympathies to you Dawn, and family for the lost of your extraordinary father. Take comfort in his memories and legacies in all of you.
~Maria Pia

We were friends at Ship's Watch. They were good to us-friendly and caring. One day when we had to head back home in a torrential rain storm they had us stay over night with them at the Waters home. Thank you Joe & Mo for being such nice thoughtful people.

Dear Hackett Family,
Sincerest Sympathy to Joe's family. He was a respected co-worker at Eastern when I worked there in the 70's & 80's. He was a good man & I am sorry to hear of his passing.

Sincere condolences goes out to the Hackett family for your sad loss. May GOD be with the family as you mourn your loss.

So sorry for your loss. Joe came when my car wouldn't start & I had to go to the vet. He also came when the basement flooded. He not only brought a pump but set it up himself because he knew I would electrocute myself. Love Betsy

My sincere condolences. Find comfort in the God who is close to the brokenhearted.

Our thoughts and prayers to The Hackett and extended families. May Cpt. Joe soar on his wings in heaven.

Jeffrey and Greta Miner

May you be forever in peace and serenity. A life well lived and an amazing man. Im thankful for the brief time that I got to know him. He will be missed

The Staff at Burke & Bussing Funeral Homes extend their deepest sympathy to the Hackett Family.
