Joe was such a kind, genuine, loving devoted individual. I don't know if I've honestly ever recall meeting anyone that godly before.

I met Joe through his wonderful wife Janet, who always seemed to make me laugh.

He will be missed!

RIP Joe

Sincerely, Teresa Dix

Janet & Joe have always been welcoming neighbors in our condo complex. We belong to the same church also. Joe is pictured here in his green Christmas sweater at the 2024 HOA Christmas party at Arelios Restaurant. He was a sweet, funny and kind man. May he rest in peace. Janet, may you always know he will never be forgotten! God Bless you and your family. Love, Laura & Ron Lubeck

My deepest sympathy to my dear friend Janet on the death of her beloved husband Joe. May the Lord give you the strength and courage to go through this difficult time. May you find comfort knowing that Joe is in the hands of God, and that your love and dedication as wife helped Joe during his transition to Eternal Life. I admire your fortitude.
Love,
