We were not close but I always respected my uncle.
My favorite Quote is "A coward will die a thousand deaths, A brave man dies but once". I believe Joe Wong has only died once.

Well, well, my Friend. It has been awhile. We met back late summer of 1958 and you have taken care of my needs ever since. Carburetors to battery cables, Chevys to Ford tractors. Somebody had to do it. I couldn't stand it. This reminded me of us:
You do not need a score of men to laugh and sing with you;
You do not need a monarch's smile to light your way along;
Through weal or woe a friend or two will fill your days with song.
So let the throng go on its way and let the crowd depart;
But one or two will keep the faith when you are sick at heart;
And rich you'll be and comforted, when gray skies hide the blue,
If you can turn and share your grief with such a friend as you.
And so, Joseph, Mamma has super ready, better come along. We never missed a step here, why start on the other side of the Pearly Gates. Your long time Friends, George and Edith

I will miss Joe but know he is at peace now. He would deliver hay to our farm every year. My fondest memory was Joe's generosity by always taking my sibling and me out for hamburgers at the local drive-in. It would always include either a movie or bowling. Whenever we came to Yakima, Joe would take us out to eat and drive us around to find the best peaches to take home.

JOE WONG FAMILY....
I WAS VERY SAD TO READ ABOUT JOE PASSING. I CUT HIS HAIR FOR MANY YEARS. IN FACT, I HAD JUST CUT HIS HAIR COUPLE OF WEEKS AGO. I REALLY LIKE JOE, ALWAYS CAME WITH DOGS, WHO WERE ALWAYS IN THE CAR, WATCHING FOR HIM TO COME OUT OF THE BARBER SHOP.
JOE WAS ONE OF THE "LAST OF THE GOOD GUYS", GOING TO MISS HIM. TO THE FAMILY MY DEEPEST SYMPATHY.

I am so sorry to hear that Joe has passed away. I have known him for almost 60 year's and saw him last August. My sister and I went to Yakima to get peaches and we always meet Joe at his favorite restaurant. Him and I always called each other on Birthdays and Holidays. Our family first met Joe when he used to haul hay over here in Bellingham and Custer. I know he is in a better place now but still a great loss to me.
