Hi Fran. Les Pilkington told me about Joe. So sorry to hear the news. I always liked him as a kind and caring neighbor. My Dad liked him very much too. He would say hi to Dad whenever he had the chance. Sincerest sympathies to you and your family. Jack Denney. Indian Harbour Beach, FL.

Dear Aunt Fran and Family,

My deepest sympathy to all of you on the passing of Uncle Joe.  It has been an honor and a pleasure to be part of your family.  I have so many memories from the past 17 years with your family - parties, weddings, hoidays and shore homes.  Joe was a wonderful husband, a great brother, a loving father and a caring grandfather.  He was unselfish, funny, loved to tease my kids...who loved to tease him right back.  Forever in my mind will be a vision of him on his boat and the rest of us crabbing and fishing.  Being on the water brought him such peace and joy (especially when there were no rainstorms or problems with the boat).  I am so happy that Pat,Morgan and myself were fortunate enough to take one last trip with him.  I will never forget it.

God Bless you all in the days ahead.

Debbie
