Elizabeth, Heather, and Ann,
Much comfort to all your family. Every memory I have of Joe is accompanied with a smile. I still tell the story from Elizabeth's wedding and Joe's trip down the aisle and final question for her! The days with Aurora Youth were such good ones. Love to all, Babs

My prayers and love are with you. I will always remember the image I have of Ann and Joe in junior high and high school, the striking couple who were not only smart and popular, but just downright nice to everyone. But, even individually, they were just beautiful people who were still striking, smart and still downright "nice", even decades later. I pray that God gives you the strength at this time to go on, live each day and, in time, heal.

I will always remember Joe as a kind and gentle man with a big voice to match his big heart. It was a pleasure working with him at Crescent Directional Drilling. Be at peace Joe.
