I dreamed about 5 years ago that daddy (Joe) was on the front porch looking up and jumping up and down praising God! I called mamma and told her and she said..well, that isn't your dad right now (his weight and all). I tell you now --- that dream came back to me yesterday and daddy IS jumping up and down now in the presence of God! In heaven we have no weight and no ills. It was such a comfort to me now. Daddy God knew I would need this, also confirming to me that my earthly daddy is with my Heavenly Daddy! What ever you may need from Daddy God, I pray that he speaks clearly to you and that his peace will cover you like a blanket and settle you. He KNOWS exactly what you need and HOW to get it to you. Ask and you shall recieve. Blessings to all of you for sharing your love. I have come to know my daddy Joe, more,,,, through your testimonies of his life and how you saw him and appreciated his life! My gratetude to all of you. Thank you.

Jeff, Julie, and the entire family, we offer our deepest sympathies. We are never prepared for the sudden loss of any member of the family, but we are especially devastated at the loss of a parent or sibling.

Marie and Jeff (I do not know your wife Jeff but I am sure she is wonderful), I worked with Joe for about 35 years. He is one of the best people I have ever met. He loved his family very much and spoke of you often. I am sure he did his best to spoil the grandchildren. I can still see him charge into a room say "We have to tighten up around here!!!" I would imagine he is spreading that same message in a better place right now. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. Dan Munn
