Memories and Condolences
for Joseph Urdock
November 20, 2014
Dear Becky and family, When Steve and I heard we were in shock...My family has known Joe since 1961 and he really was my first dentist. My mother and father loved and embraced Joe from the time he came to Johnstown. All the Kiwanis functions and organizations he belonged to and supported were endless. I was 8 years old when he came to Johnstown and now, we say goodbye to a fine servant and friend 53 years later...only in Johnstown or small towns USA get that. He will be missed very much Sincerely, Steve and Julie (Van Fossen) and family

When great men die, the temptation is to lift up the greatness of The man. Truly great men, Like Joe, know that the only greatness is found in Christ and in humble service to The Lord.
Joe and Becky touched my heart. Joe and I had many conversations about our God. I do know that God sent Joe to me so I would be closer to our Lord. Joe will always hold a very special place in my heart. I will miss him, but I do know one day we will meet again. Thank you Joe for being in my life, you made me a better person. Sending you hugs and love forever.
