My wonderful Uncle Joe,
You were my dad's best friend, partner in work and ministry. You were a spiritual giant, and yet such a gentle giant. My most vivid memory of you is at the side of a hospital bed. Actually, dozens and dozens of them. You were *always* there! You (and you, Auntie Pauline) were so incredibly faithful, always the first ones to show up at a bedside to pray. You came, you prayed, you left. No drama, just prayer, faith, love. Consistently, always, year in and year out.
Auntie, Karen, Debbie, Joey, Melissa, thank you so much for sharing your dad with us!
love, Sandy

Joe was a true Christian and will be missed but will have his place in Heaven.
My many memories of Joe are precious and I am blessed to have had him in my life.
My thoughts and prayers to Pauline, Karen, Melissa and Joe.

Our hearts are saddened, our world emptier. What a man was Joe!consistent and joyful Christian, marked by generosity, humility, and kindness,devoted to and deeply loved by Pauline, children, grandchildren, and all of us who knew him.

So many losses for the Tavilla family in the last 18 months! We celebrate Joe's life, faith, and now eternal reward, but we pray for Pauline & family as the joyful assurance of Heaven is mixed with the reality of loss.
