Mary Helen and Family, please accept my sincere condolences. I only met Mr. Coogle about a year ago while visiting my Mom at Heritage Harbor. I got to know the family during those visits also. They were very loyal and dedicated to seeing that Mr. Coogle was treated with the utmost respect. Mr. C was so lucky to have such a wonderful family and no doubt in my mind they were lucky to have him for a husband, father and Grandfather. My thoughts and prayers are with you all.Hope our paths cross again.You folks were always so nice to me and my Mom.
Fondly

My condolences to Joe's friends and family. I knew Joe from Ketchum and enjoyed those times when our paths crossed for business. He was a very gentlemanly fellow and I appreciated his gracious and genial style with all of our employees, no matter their position, when he visited our offices in San Francisco.

I remember when he would come to our office for meetings. He would make his way to the 4th floor boardroom only after stopping on each floor and greeting every staff member he encountered and inquiring about our wellbeing. That small gesture is still spoken of here when his name is mentioned. A small way but still one of the many ways he made a difference. Many blessing to his family at this time.
