To Mark and Linda, and all of Joe's family, Maria and I were both saddened to learn of Joe's recent passing, yet Heaven's gain is truly this world's loss! What a wonderful man and a great Christian "Brother" was Joe. How I wish every Catholic was like Joseph Ledoux! He was always so thoughtful and asked about Maria when I would see him at the Knox Trail Tea Party assemblies at the Legion Post 138 in Spencer a few years back now. I especially appreciated his support and presence when we served with him on the former Spencer Republican Town Committee. He was unwavering in his patriotism and defense of the unborn and all of God's righteous commands and laws. I'll especially miss his Christmastime notes in the Spencer New Leader weekly about doing good works mindful of Christ's birth, sacrifice to us all and example here in this fallen world. May many warm memories and God's love be with you all now and in the time to come. Rest in Peace, Joe. Surely you'll hear "Well done, thy good and faithful servant." You'll be missed greatly here.

We were so sorry to hear about Joe`s passing. But he is finally peacefully at eternal rest with his loving wife. He was such a kind, wonderful person who loved helping out at the farm and his son`s practice. When I would go to his home to pick up medicine for my horses, we would share a lot of laughs. Rest in peace Joe.
