Not sure what to say?

I love you and miss you Poppy
You're Da Man!!!

To Joe and Mark
I first met your Dad and flew with him and Chuck @ Golden State Helicopters in 1980.
I met the Gal Im married to in 1983 she and her kids lived down the street from you two and your Mom.
Havent flown in years and was thinking about your Dad just days before this sad day.
Our thoughts and prayers go out to the whole Pike Family.
Joe was a great Man, Pilot and Father.

Geniece's Stepdad Mike

My thoughts and prayers are with you in your time of grief. May your memories bring you comfort.

To the Pike Family and Irma:
I will miss Joe not only as a friend, but also as a customer. I have fueled his aircraft many times working for World Service West (now Million Air Victorville). His sense of humor was uncanny. All of his students always talked highly of his flying skills/instruction. He will be missed dearly. God Bless you all.

To the Pike Family:
I only knew Joe for a few years, but during that time I have never met anyone who was more full of life. While flying the Bell 47 with him during my CFI training, I came to appreciate what a talented avaitor he was. The world is most definitely a lesser place now. My condolences.

Hello -
Can you tell me if Joseph Pike is related to Matt Pike that has the Bob's Big Boy in Baker and Barstow?
I know Matt from work and would like to extend my condolences to him and his family. Thank you

Dear Irma, Mark and Joey,
We sure are gonna miss Joe. We all have great memories that will always be with us. He lived life to the fullest. His achievments are more than most men, and he passed so much of his knowlege and expertise on to so many others, especially to you Mark and Joey. What a great Dad (AKA "The Old Man"), Husband, Friend, and Teacher he was. We will miss him deeply.

To Joe and Mark;
Your Dad will be dearly missed. I know that I will never forget the day that he put pickle juice in a glass with ice, and then gave it to his Mom. Just to watch her gently swallow the juice and yell at him for what he did. He’d laughed and said “I love you Mom”. I will miss his practical jokes. He and Dave Humphrey are now playing jokes on each other.

A couple of GREAT guys! Our thoughts & prayers go out to your families. May the Good Lord comfort you all.
Lovingly, Rich & Laura McCarthy & family
