Hey buddy, It's still hard to believe that you're gone. It just seems like yesterday that I first met you in the transfer room at NWA.
We had a lot of good times in the short 15 years we've known each other huh? I still remember when Kyllo had us over for a Vikes game and how the guys punked him when he passed out...I know that toothbrush had seen better days!
And the time on Redeske's boat when I was trying to feed all the hungry fish on Lake Minnetonka...and I believe that was the same day you had jumped into six feet of water to find the truck keys I had dropped in the lake. To this day, I think my phone is still down there!
Although we've known each other for a relatively short time, I had a lifetime of fond memories that I will hold dear and keep with me forever.
I'm really gonna miss you Joe, you were like the brother I never had. I love you buddy. Rest in peace my friend.

Dear Dave, Joyce, Carrie, Heather, Danny and Benjamin,
Words can't express the heartfelt sympathy that we have for all of you. Your lives have been changed forever. Joe will be missed and loved forever in all of our hearts. Jean and Mike Buller
