Nancy and family, We are deeply saddened to hear of Joe's passing. Joe was always a gentleman, who was kind, compassionate and honest.

Nancy and family, I was so sorry to hear of Joe’s passing. He was a dear friend, a truly wonderful person. I always loved stopping by to visit with him, and I know that I will think of him every time I pass by the shop. He always made sure that my car was being well taken care of. Though you will miss him so, you can take comfort in knowing that he is with his dear Mom and Dad, whom he missed so terribly and that he is looking down and watching you, sending love and light from a better place. All of you are in my thoughts and prayers during these days of parting from your loving husband, father and granddad.
