Karen,
I will always remeber Joe's candor and funny nature he always carried on his sleeve. I have known Joe through the food industry for sometime. I will miss him most at the Food Shows! Joe was so easy to relate to and talk to as if we were old friends!
Joe, you will be missed and my thought and prayers are with you Karen and your family!

With deepest sincerity,
Chad Thompson

Dearest Karen,
I will always remember the afternoon I had the opportunity to spend with you and Joe on your boat. You were both such gracious hosts and I will always remember the smiles and laughter we shared.

Please know you and your family are in our thoughts and prayers during this difficult time.

Lovingly,

I was blessed to have known Joe in 4 different and great ways: First as a client, then as a friend, then as a co-worker and then as a colleague. Most importantly we remained good friends after meeting nearly 10 years ago. Joe always had a smile on his face and every time we talked it was as if we had just seen each other the day before and were picking right back up where we left off. Joe had a huge heart and was the first to offer a helping hand and thoughtful word of advice to pick you up.

Joe - you were a GREAT friend and Karen my prayers go out to you and your family. Please accept my deepest condolences.
