I was Joe's squad leader during the Battle of the Bulge in 1944 where we both were captured. Joe and I have recounted our experiences many times. His jokes about those times will be missed.

Sylvia, My deepest condolences to you and your family. I worked with Joe at IAM Headquarters for many years. As the Reps Assoc. Steward we had few grievance hearings, all of which, I'm proud to say, were all settled fairly. Joe was a real workers lawyer. We always knew he was on our side. He will be missed by all his IAM brothers and sisters -- Jim Conley

Dear Sylvia, Jeff and Family:
You were our dearest neighbors for over 34 years. We will always remember Papa Joe's parties and how he enjoyed cooking. He was a fine gentleman with a great sense of humor. We watched each other houses when we were traveling.
You will always be in our hearts.

Sylvia Manners and Family:
Dear Mrs. Manners,
I had the pleasure of knowing Joe for many years when I practiced law downtown in Miami. I was very active in the David Eldredge Legislative Campaign When I saw Joe at a debate or rally, we always shared a joke and had fun with each other.
Joe was a fine lawyer, a good adversary and above all, he was a gentleman.
I have you and your family in my thoughts and prayers.
