Joe was my father-in-law. I remember him as a quiet, strong man. Always there to protect. No one was more loving of their families. Stories of his World War II service follow him. He always had a smile and open arms to his grandchildren. I can't keep from smiling when remembering him. God bless you Joe.

My father had fond memories of his cousin, Joe, and I hope that they will meet in again in heaven with our Lord. God bless Joe and his entire family. Our sympathies are with you.
