Joe touched our lives in many aspects cherished: family, student years, profession and friendship. We have so many fond memories of moments spent with Joe and Sharon. May your family hold dear your fondest memories of times when Joe brought as much joy to you as he did to all he encountered. Joe is the most gracious, funny and brilliant person to have been in our lives. Your family remains in our hearts and prayers. We are sorry for your loss.
With our deepest condolences.

I got to know Dr. Hartmann when I was the Good Samaritan EMS secretary working in paramedic education from 1989-2008. I would be in his presence at System meetings and also take many of our eligible paramedic students up to his office where he would talk with them and they would then receive their final paramedic 3-digit paramedic official number. Dr. Hartmann was a wonderful, friendly, amusing and intelligent man. I was so shocked to just hear of his passing today. Heaven is a greater kingdom with him there now. My condolences to Sharon and his sons too. Sincerely, Jan Simpson

Joe was a wonderful man who served Edward Hospital as a cardiologist and a Board Member. He played an important role in advancing the quality of care delivered in our community. He was an excellent physician, a good friend, and always a good time. We extend our sincere condolences to Sharon, Dr. Mike, and the family. Joe will be missed. Mary Lou Mastro

Joe was a cardiologist at Good Samaritan Hospital for many years. While there, he accomplished many things. He was a superb physician, a great friend and a tremendous mentor. He was instrumental in the development of out EMS/paramedic system in DuPage county. He ran cardiology at Good Samaritan for many years and developed a program known for its excellence. He personally saved countless lives.
Joe's legacy lives on with the people there, where he helped so many to reach potential that never new they had and established an energy and environment where we could work hard, give excellent care and have fun while doing it. He knew a lot about the joy of life and shared it with us all. He will be missed, but never gone.
On behalf of the physicians and staff in cardiology at Good Samaritan, I want to thank Sharon, Mike and Tom for sharing Joe with us...

Dr. Joe served as our North Central College team physician back in the 70's when I was coaching football. He was a friend and we enjoyed having him as part of the future success in NCC athletics. We pray for Sharon and family for peace and understanding. Hank and Joan Guenther.

I remember Joe mostly as a kid when our parents were friends, and we went to visit in Effingham. Later, I knew him as an adult when we would gather together to discuss various topics at his cousin's house. It sounds like he became an outstanding doctor who really had compassion for his patients. Having been working in the medical field since 1990, I can say that those kind of doctors are rare. We could sure use more like Joe. My thoughts and prayers are with the whole family.
Sincerely,

A respected colleague,great guy and top-notch cardiologist.
Was my upstairs neighbor at 2340 Highland.
When I complained about the noise from his Treadmill-he cooled me off with a Gin and Tonic!
Will be greatly missed.
Heaven will be a more fun place.
