I'll always remember Joe as a kind and wonderful man, always that ornery grin to let you know that he was one step ahead of what you were thinking.

I worked with Joe for 11 years at Arcair and he was a straight shooter, he did a good job and was always a bright spot in our workday,he sold a house for me once when he was doing real estate.

All of us would be proud to accomplish a fraction of what this kind man did in his lifetime.

He used to buy harmonicas from me and I was tickled to know that he was a musician along with all of his many talents.

Rest well Joe, you were truly one of the Greatest Generation, a man that lived a lifetime of so many beautiful memories. I'm happy to be a small part of sharing unforgettable moments with this man, I'll think of you often...,.,
