Dear Grandpa,
I will dearly miss you on the holidays. I know I did not see you that much but you were close to me as a baby. You were close to my family too. I will take good care of my loving mother and your wonderful daughter. I hope they have Wendy's strawberry milkshakes where you are. I Love You With All My Heart.

Well good morning everybody, This is Boss #1, you know ,The BIG STRUNZ, Kevin. Everyone rose from sleep this morning; but one person decided to sleep in and have one of those GLORIUS ETERNAL DREAMS. JOE,you are in my dreams;for that GOD BLESS YOU and THANK YOU.The Lone Star of Texas is SHINING ON YOU ,SIR. With so many reflections over the years,one particularily comes to mind. You would ask,"where's my keys and did I lock the door?" My answer today is the keys were always in your hands cuz today yer knockin' on HEAVEN'S DOOR." Good night now Joe,for some day we to will awake. CIAO for NOW.From your Strunz step-son Kevin.

Dear Janet, Barb and Donna,

I used to work for Joe back in the early 70s with Gary Pawlak and Charlie O'Hara. Charlie relayed your father's passing to Gary who is stationed in Afghanistan. Gary then looked me up on Facebook and sent a message to me temporarily working in Taiwan. I look back on those 'Mohawk' years with fond memories and consider Joe a very positive influence in my life. You have my deepest sympathy on your loss of a truly wonderful husband, father and human being. He will be sorely missed.
