Many responses have been posted to this list, because of all our fond memories of Joe. From first grade to 12th grade, Joe was just as you described him in His obituary.

Joe was my first high school sweetheart, and going to the semi-formal dance with him freshman year was my happiest memory. We remained friends all through high school, and I will never forget the good times we shared. After graduation we may have lost touch, but Joe could never be forgotten. I am thankful to have known Joe and to have been able to call him "friend."
My thoughts and prayers are with all of you.

Pat,
I am so sorry to hear of Joe's passing. He was such a wonderful positive person, I enjoyed seeing him each time he came around while I was working on your house. I will always remember him as well as your whole family very fondly. You, your family and Joe's wife and family will be in our prayers. I'm sorry we cannot attend, as we are moved out of state now.

May God comfort and strengthen you during this difficult time, and may God give you the peace and assurance that Joe is with Him, regaling the hosts of heaven with his Elvis impersonations and his gift of entertainment.
