I’m very saddened to hear of Joe’s passing. He was always a very friendly, congenial, happy person. I will miss our casual chats whenever we met. I pray God will give his family strength and solitude knowing he is now at peaceful rest.
I am so sorry to hear that “Aunty Joe”….as I used to call him when I was very little…has passed away. He was always so nice to me. He would get on the floor and play when I was younger and any food or drink I wanted, he made sure I got it. I haven`t seen him in many years but I have many happy memories of my visits. Take care ” Uncle Mag”. Love you. Coleton
