Not sure what to say?

Currently in the process of figuring out my purpose and place in life and it led me here. I was placed in inner harbour as a teenager. Back in 06 if I'm not mistaken... I'm truly sorry for your loss and greatly thank you for ending up on my path of self discovery

I just heard this sad news. Joe was a good friend my father (John A. Helms) at Life of Georgia and then my summer boss when I interned at MSG after college. What a warm, wise, generous, and (in his own very sly way) funny man! A big loss. RIP, Joe.

We are sorry for the loss of your loved one. He was a remarkable man in his own right. Our prayers are with you during this time of bereavement. God bless

Rick and I were so sorry to hear about Joe. He always had a smile on his face. The obituary shows strong evidence of other excellent writers in the family. We
know your memories will carry you through this sad time. Hugs to you, Kathy, and all the Ledlies.

I first met Joe at Life Of Georgia and was fortunate to run across his path throughout his career. He was always ready to help and dispence advice whenever & whatever the circumstance. A great guy who will be missed.

I am so sad to hear of the news of Joe's passing. He was a kind and generous supporter of Reach for Excellence. Our deepest sympathies to his family.

I always enjoyed meeting with Joe Ledlie wherever in the world our PRGN meetings would bring us together. Humble, soft spoken but knowing and always with a sharp thought (and a good laugh) concerning matters we discussed.
My deepest condolences to Kathy and the Ledlie family. Joe will be deeply missed.

So sorry to hear of Joe's death. During times we shared at the AJC, he always had a twinkle in his eye and a willingness to share a laugh about the absurdity of most things human. As a newsman and as a PR man, he was indeed a southern gentleman.

Please accept my sincere condolences on your loss. I was raised on 40th and atlantic and have fond memories of Joe, Roddy, Gene, Meg and there parents. I know he will be missed.
