I was so saddened to hear that Joe passed. We worked together at the City of Gainesville for many years and he was always respectful, cheerful and a good friend. He really loved his family and was proud of his children. I Pray that God will give you all strength and peace during this time. Joe is in the almighty hands of God and he is free from pain and suffering!!

We are so sorry for your loss. We are praying that God will continue to keep you. Your friendship was greatly valued when we lived in the area as we all raised our children.
