I originally met Joe at the VA Medical Center in Wilkes-Barre. Then found out we both lived in Harding. We always seemed to meet each other whenever I was there. Joe was in the Maintenance Department. He did everything. I needed some electrical work done at our house. He came down one day and helped me with the repair and when he needed a hand, I was there to help him.

Our relationship lasted a little over 20 years. I miss our relationship, as I´m sure a lot of other people who knew Joe too.

We will meet again, I´m sure....
