I am so sad to lose such an amazing man I have known for years as a part of our family. We all loved Papa Joe. I am so grateful to have known him, and so grateful for his unending service not only to his country, but his community as well. My deepest sympathies go to his family. He will be missed. Love you Papa Joe
