I am so going to miss our trips to get feed me you and Terry somehow spent more time together then we do with anyone.

The last sibling of his generation. We were surprised that Uncle Joe left when he did but his final prayer was answered and he was ready. His last thanksgiving with his two surviving sons, in the comfort of his own home surrounded by the love of his animals. May you rest in eternal peace. I love you Uncle Joe and your stories you shared are priceless.
