Not sure what to say?

Jane (and all your families) I missed thos in December. Am sorry to hear of your dad's passing. Many memories of our time on Franklin St. Janet (Schultz) Hughes

We offer our prayers and sympathy to Joe´s family. He and Pat were fellow Queen´s parishioners. Pat was a volunteer in the Religious Education office with me always had kinds things to say about Joe. What a testament to their love for each other! We would often see Joe in the neighborhood and with his son at events such as fireworks at the Cascades. He was such a kind and caring person. May cherished memories bring you comfort and peace.

Although I do not know how Joe and my father Joe Owens met, I know that Dad had a great deal of respect for him. I am sorry for your loss.

What an honor to have known this gentle man and witness his faith in action. May the angels welcome him to Paradise.

To all the McCarthy's condolences yet such a greatness in your lives to have a dad for so very long. I was lucky enough to also have both parents well into my adulthood. A hard thing but have a Merry Christmas. He and his wife raised a great group!

Joe was a well liked and well respected engineer at Gilbert/Commonwealth. The Engineering Nation mourns the loss of a fellow engineer. 99 - What a life!

Your dad was so kind and respectful to all the kids in the neighborhood. Great guy.

Sincere sympathy to all the McCarthy cousins and their families and may Uncle Joe rest in peace. He and Patsy were so welcoming when my boys were young and we drove through Jackson, they loved seeing the vintage car. Also recall Joe's kindness when Grandpa Matt died almost fifty years ago, I was devastated and struggling with my grief. Joe did his best to comfort me and spoke of Grandpa's long life. I have never forgotten this.
