Joe & I came into the department together in the same class. What a great guy. His courage was evident when we scaled the outside wall of the drill tower using "the sticks" together. This drill would strike terror in the heart of a window washer. To do that, with a fear of heights, Joe showed his strong personal courage and dedication. We all miss you, Joe.

What a pleasure to work with Joe at both 12 Truck and Radio. He was a great guy, an excellent fireman, had a wonderful sense of humor, and always seemed to have a grin on his face like he knew something you didn't know. It was obvious he loved his family very much as he spoke about them often. My sincere sympathy to all for your loss. Rest in peace, Joe.

Our condolences to Teresa and her family. I remember seeing Joe in his Class A Fire Department uniform 31 years ago almost to the day at my father, Downtown Bill's funeral. A classy man whom we will miss.

I always liked it when Joe was at radio-he was very good there and took care of business and looked out for the folks in the field. He was a very nice man!

Daddy words could never express the love and appreciation I will always feel for you. I feel safer knowing that Alycia has an angel like you watching over her. You were my hero & I will live my life by the standards you raised me with. God blessed me with the best daddy in the whole world. God bless you and I will see you again. Love your sidekick

My heart goes out to the Pardo family. I had the honor to work with Joe his last couple of years at Truck 12. Joe was a great man, devoted husband and father and loved his job as a firefighter, especially as the Tillerman. Joe will be joining some of his brothers from T12. May you find peace and happiness and I know you will be waiting for the rest of us with table cloth and candles. God Bless you Joe and your Family.
