I offer my condolences to each of you. Seems the family has had their share of hardship the last several years. Didnt take the time to really get to know Joe well, but always liked the Joe I did get to know. My loss for not taking the time to know him better. Just thought of him as "the younger brother". Our Rewards are not of this earth. John 14:1-7.
