Sincerely sorry for your loss... prayers to your family
My sincere condolences on the passing of Joe. We were neighbors for many, many years and more than once Joe pulled me out of the mud with his Farmall M. Joe was a great neighbor and classmate and will unquestionably be missed.

I am so very sorry for your loss. I don't remember Joe very well. He was a year behind me in school, but I do remember his kindness. God bless you all with His awesome peace

I’m so sorry to hear of Joe’s passing. I haven’t seen him in many years but I served him a lot of breakfasts, coffee and possibly other beverages at a couple of the area restaurants several years ago. He was a nice guy. My condolences to the family.
