John Joseph "Joe" Sipe

Uncle Joe you will be greatly missed! Cathy our thoughts are with you at this sad time and hope the memories that you have will help in your loss. Joe was always the uncle with the complicated stories about what he did and we just looked at him in awe. He had a great laugh and cute ears and we will deeply miss him.

We are so sorry to learn of Joe's passing. His sweet smile and tales of invention will always be missed here on Mt. Vernon Street. Our thoughts are with you Cathy...

My sympathy go out to you, Cathy. I know how much you will miss him as will everyone who knew him.

I will miss Joe. He was a great uncle, and reflected some of the best of what seemed to radiate from his mother, father, sister and brother. Joe had a great sense of adventure and I was always drawn to this. He touched the lives of every member of his wonderful family and in our memories his legacy will live on. My thoughts and prayers are with Cathy as she deals with this great loss.

In fond memory of our neighbour "Joe". A quiet and gentle man with a sense of humour who also loved to cook delicious meals which we enjoyed. He loved his animals who will miss him so much as we do. With sympathy to Cathy and the family.

Joe was an extraordinary person, with a great mind. We have fond memories of him and consider ourselves lucky to have had him as a friend. He was a kind, gentle man, always interested what others had to say. We will miss him and wish Cathy the strenght and courage to go on.

With fond memories of student years at the University of Washington and friendships formed, it is sad to learn of the loss of one of those friends. I remember Joe for his wit and humor and good times in his company. I also remember adventures, including a fishing trip we were lucky to survive, crossing the Ilawco bar alone in a small boat. Joe called me a couple months ago, following the loss of another college friend, and in jest, invited me to go boating with him again in the Ocean.

With fond memories of some great times around Roberts Hall at the University of Washington. Our prayers and condolences are with Cathy and the family.

We were sad to hear of Joe's passing. He was fun to be around and had great perspectives on just about anything. I'll always remember his violin playing setting on a rock at the edge of the Columbia Gorge in White Salmon. An who could forget all the fishing trips to the Pot Holes. He was a virtuoso in all that he did.

Dorothy and I have great fond memories of Joe and all the family.
