I am deeply saddened by the news of Joe's Passing, I have been a fan member of his sons for almost 30 years and to this day he and his wife Flora have always been the sweetest down home people ,they always treated me more like a far away family member then a fan club member. I am not sure that Flora remembers me or not , we have lost touch over the last few years, but I bet the fan number #865 May ring a bell. I have saved most our memorabilia and things her and I sent back and forth through the years, and the card still remains on my fridge she sent for our wedding in 2003. thanks for the memories.. All of you... back in the 90's I had been to over 50 or more of JOE'S SHOWS.. You made your dad proud with that music... LOVE MISSIE AND PHIL NADINE MOM TOO.
