Joe will be missed dearly. He was a good neighbor. We will always remember the BBQs and Christmas cookies.and you with your hats and cigars. Our children and his grew up together. He was always willing to come over and fix stuff at our house. May you find peace with God now.Joe. Our prayers are with his family.
