Joe was a sweet, kind, caring man who dearly loved his family and all those who cared for his family. He was such a wonderful light in this world. He will be sorely missed by all those who knew him.
I remember when I first met Joe. It was about a decade and a half ago. I came up with my best friend, his stepdaughter Kristian, around Christmas time. He had gifts for his grandkids. He was so, so happy to see them. He wouldn't let me leave without a gift either even though he hadn't met me in person before. That says a lot about the kind of person he was. Always wanted to share the love and let no one go empty handed.
His entire family is MY family in my heart. I will pray for you all to over come the grief of his loss and be left with all the happiness and positive memories until you meet again in heaven.
Our staff will continue to keep your family in our prayers. We thank you for allowing us to serve your family.
