I have known Joe for many years, working beside him daily at Major´s RV. Joe was a great friend and cared about people deeply. He was devoted to his family and anyone around him, doing anything he could to help people if they had and needs. With his deep faith in Jesus I have no doubts Joe is sitting in Heaven singing praises to the Lord. He was a wonderful person to know and I have been blessed to have Joe as a friend in my life.
