Three years already that Joe's been rejoicing in the Lord's presence! Always remembered.

Thinking of Joe with treasured memories, and appreciation of his friendship and sincere love of his Saviour Jesus Christ, with whom he now dwells.

I first met Joe in 1984 when we both worked at SSS and shared an office.  I very was fortunate because Joe was quite the computer expert and whenever I had a question I just had to turn around and ask Joe.  Our paths crossed again some years later where we both attended Calvary Chapel of Melbourne.  My wife and kids were blessed in getting to know Joe and his wife and my wife kept up with him through Facebook.  My wife and I are very sad to see his passing but consider ourselves blessed to have gotten to know him. In the 90's and early 2000's we would always run into Joe at the annual Melbourne Computer Show.  He truly loved computers and software development. 

The memory that sticks out in my mind is one night I asked how his meal was, he replied " Just Peachy" he had peach pancakes that night and that would start our nightly chats, that I greatly miss.  He was family to us at Cracker Barrel I always looked forward to him coming by. We miss him, his stories and Smile.  I miss him but am glad he is with Joy and Coco most of all our Lord Jesus together again as a happy Family.

Our sincerest condolences on the loss of Joe.  He will be missed by everyone who knew him.

My dear cousin Joe. I remember the fun times we had growing up, it seems like yesterday. Someone so special can never be forgotten, may his soul rest in peace. I will miss you.

It's so sad for those left behind now Joe has gone on to glory. How we miss him every day, even though we live on the other side of the world.  

Our friendship began  back in the days of Wikianswers, where we shared the difficulties of supervising the contentious and often distressing Religion category. Joe was wholehearted for Jesus, and his faith and worldview was so solidly grounded, I could trust his opinion on anything. 

We appreciated his presence in our lives ever since, although we never met in person. We will one day, and it's wonderful to think he is already in the presence of his precious Saviour with dear Joy...no more anxieties, illness, or cares. All is now perfect. Welcome home, Joe.

With so much love to his mom and anyone else missing him.

We love & miss you, Joe. Thanks so much for the friendship ♥️

Love from Sharon, Peter, & family in Australia.


I’m sitting here at Cracker Barrel and was thinking of Joe.  So sad to hear of his passing.  Often spent time over a meal here at Cracker Barrel.  For years we could always count on Joy and Joe being here on a Sunday night.  Their smiles were contagious.  See you in Heaven when we share a meal at the Savior’s banquet feast.

While the memories I do have with Joe are brief, I do know that he was very outspoken, you could always bet he would stand his ground, I admired him for that so much. On more than one occasion Joe went above and beyond for me, as he did for so many other people,  I am glad I got to experience the compassion, wisdom and kindness he spread.
Joe will be missed by me and so many other people. 

Very sorry for your loss, Joe will be missed by all of us.
I worked with him for 25+ year and he was always kind and a friend.
He always wished me a Happy Birthday every year when others would forget Joe never did.   He was a very kind and sincere person.
He is with our Lord and his Wife now.   So God Bless him.

Although our time working together was brief you will be missed.  Thank  you for the hard work and dedication, your legacy will live on in many ways. 

So sorry to hear of Joey's passing. We grew up together. I have fond memories of riding my bike to his house, skating on his pond, playing board games, and just talking. My thoughts go out to you Miss Katherine. 

Sincere condolences to Joe’s family. I went to school with Joe and we had stayed in touch over the years.  Very sad to hear of his passing. Rest In Peace with Joy and Coco.
