It is with great sadness that I express my condolences to the Joe Wiley family. Joe was a great man! I worked with closely with Joe at Chrysler and we had many wonderful conversations. The one that sticks out in my mind, is when we were talking about the Eagle. A minister had held a revival at our church and the entire week was a comparison of God to the Eagle. I told Joe it reminded me of a song, that I then found out that he also knew. We started singing it together. "They that wait upon the Lord, shall renew their strength, they shall mount up with wings as eagles...they shall run and not be weary, they shall walk and not faint...teach me Lord, teach me Lord to wait. I tried to find the series for him on CD, but now have run out of time. But, I was able to find a nice picture with an eagle that I was able to give him. Joe, I am going to miss you terribly! Until God takes me home...I will see you again, brother. With deepest sympathy to Joe's family...Donna
