Joe was an amazing man, and it was an honor to know him. Not only did he serve in the United States Navy during WWII, but he was a Flying Cross Recipient! http://www.vpnavy.com/vp114_1940.html Still, I think his greatest pride was the love and respect he shared with Jean and his children. God Bless you ALL! Thank you, Sir!
