Joe was a friend and neighbor. We met when his family moved to our block. We played ball together at the park around age 10 or 11. We had some good times back in the day. Our prayers go out to Joe's family and friends. With love the Grissett Family.

Joe was on a recreational billiards team with me on Wednesday nights. He was a great teammate and an interesting person. Ever the gentleman and a courteous player, he just got better with age. I enjoyed Joe's company, his sense of humor, and his sense of history.

A few years back, while waiting to start a match, I asked Joe if he had ever served in the military. He started a story that continued for 45 minutes, spanned the early years of his life, had many funny and ironic turns to it, and was excellent! I think he enjoyed telling me!

He was proud of who he was, what he had done, and his family and friends. He lived a great life, and I feel fortunate to have lived in his time.

I am reminded of Barack Obama's eulogy for Sen. John McCain. In it, President Obama said the highest praise a man could earn was for his friends to say, "He was a good man." I would like to say the same for Joe: "He was a good man, and we shall miss him."

I tell friends when other friends pass to not think them gone, but just gone on ahead. So, rack them up, Joe! We will all join you soon enough.

Peace to Joe's family and friends, especially his best friend Henry Jenkins, who all miss Joe more than we can know.
