I miss you, Joe. Talking to you everyday for the last 15 years I find myself reaching for the phone all the time. See you soon.

I knew Joe during his later years. He gave good advice to me on some issues, and was always willing to listen. I could tell that he had a high intelligence; and I admired that; albeit him not knowing or trusting his own potential at times. He will be missed.

I´ll see you again brother and until then I´m glad your no longer in pain or causing me any lol. You were quite a Challange growing up but you kept me on my toes and taught me a few things on the way. You were a generous person and a great host. You were a natural mechanic and a very good carpenter. I hope they can use your sharp mind there. I´ll see you down the road.

Uncle Joe- I´m so glad we got to connect again before Jesus took you home. And I´m eternally thankful that we got to talk about faith- that you came to know Jesus and that I saw the hope that gave to you. Looking forward to seeing you again on the awesome side of life. I love you.

Be at peace, uncle Joe. I look back at the time we spent together in my childhood fondly, teasing and all. Your cool old house, your best bud Frank, and eating fried chicken by the river in redwood. Thank you for some pretty fun times and for always being a jokester. I´ll see ya in the flip side in heaven

Joe use to drive me crazy when we were younger but one never wishes any pain or suffering on anyone. RIP Joe... Wayne C
