Missing you every minute of everyday. Doesn’t get any easier. I can finally understand why mom was the way she was when grandma passed. Dad no words could ever express the love and gratitude I have for you. Thank you for visiting me in my dreams. I love you always.

Its been 3 years since I said goodbye to you Dad.  Not a day goes by that I don't think of you.  I speak of you often to your grandchildren.  They know what a great man and father you were.  I miss you Dad.

Love always,

Your son,

Aaron

No one ever had better friends, 
So glad Joe & Elaine were my friends. Until we meet again, 
Chris

To the Atkinson Family:  Our hearts go out to Elaine and family.   Joe was a great husband and father.  My  Mom will watch over him.  Remember all the great memories you had in your lifetime.  

so many memories, so many rides, so many adventures, so many conversations....they will be treasured & you will be thought of often, always have been & always will be Joe - know that your family can count on us anytime we are just a phone call away....after all these years and all we've gone through together family we will always be....FLY HIGH JOE 

I’ve known a great many people on my life, but none, absolutely none better than Joe.  If he was your friend, you were truly blessed in this life.  I’ve noticed over the many years, that there were those who didn’t always like what Joe had to say. That’s OK, some people have a difficult time with truth and reality. Joe was someone who would always tell you like it is. He spoke the truth and he spoke his mind, no sugar-coating anything from Joe. He was the real deal, through and through. A stand up guy, a real man in today’s plastic, phony world. Some will say that the world is a little darker today without my friend Joe. I say no one can ever extinguish the light of a man such as Joe. He touched the lives of so many, and in turn, lit a bright light within them, that leaves me to believe his light in this world will shine on forever. 
Godspeed, Brudda, Godspeed. 
You will never be forgotten, and dearly missed until we meet again. 
Your Grateful Friends,
Chris & Theresa

Our heartfelt sympathies to my Sister Elaine, Joey, Aaron and Shauna;

Many many years of such fond  memories with Joe, that will forever remain in our hearts,
From the time  I was  11, and Kelly and I used to babysit Joey and Aaron @ their home in Fremont to  many trips back HOME to our last wonderful summer spent together in 2019, 
Joe has always been the same! Smiling, full of jokes, fun, loyal and a gentle giant. He loved his family and provided well, with ALL HE HAD,, ALL THE TIME.  What a blessing to have had him in our lives. 
 Elaine, Joey, Aaron and Shauna, May the loving memories you carry in your heart help to comfort you during this difficult time . 
We love all of you ❤️
