Joe was a favorite of mine as a treasured friend of my parent's while I grew up. I always looked forward to seeing him and Joan at their gatherings to play cards. I am so grateful to his friendship to my family. The picture of him is how I remember him, always smiling, super fun and friendly. Much love to Joan and your family. He will be missed.
