I have great memories of Joe. We go back for many years. I sure will miss the music. We sure did have some fun singing.
Joe and I also shared prayer at City Church throuh the years. I believe Joe and Joyce went there when it was M.G.T., and Lake City.
I can never say goodbye to Joe, it's more like I'll see you later my friend. In Christ Jesus.

Joe was always so kind to everyone. Always willing to reach out and help others. His compassion will be missed. I enjoyed working with Joe for a short time and witnessed his forgiving nature many times. Thanks for all the fun times , Joe. Rest now. Blessings of peace for his family.
