Yesterday when I saw this i entered a lengthy message that is not here. IDK why??? Only my 2nd message appeared. I couldn't say enough wonderful things about Joe, wonderful memories from the day we moved in next door 40 yrs ago. He came to our rescue many times. So sorry to see this. We loved your dad and mom.
