Everything that was said at your service was exactly the man you were. We were blessed to know you and Diane and laugh with both of you.

I will always remember Joe driving his golf cart to my parents home, and proudly handing us a tray of something special that he or Diane made, and of course there was enough to feed an army. Joe loved his family and was so proud of all his kids. Always smiling, always laughing, and he was so good to my parents, he and my dad became such good friends from the moment they met! He surprised my dad on his 90th birthday with a flag pole and flag, to me it was a pretty amazing gift, my dad loved it! I love it too because everytime I look at that flag, I remember the day he gave it to my dad. Joe will be missed by so many.
To Diane and his family, I loved your dad, he was one of the good guys. I hope you all find comfort in knowing you were his world. My condolences to you all. Sending love and prayers
