Dear Nancy and family:
You have lost a loving husband, father and grandfather but the memories you carry in your heart will live on forever. Joe was a true friend who was always willing to lend a helping hand to someone in need.

Nancy and Family...I'm very sorry for your loss. Joe was a great guy and one of the best neighbors I have ever had. I remember the first night my family and I moved in next door, Joe brought us a generator to use as the storm caused our power to be off for hours. Even after moving away, I missed the many cups of coffee and great conversations that you and Joe were so generous in sharing. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.
