Dear Doris, Robbie and Katie, my condolences to you all. I think the last time I saw uncle Joe was when he was visiting NEwfoundland and I was in my early 20’s. he had a great laugh, and him and mom (Lillian) were chatting and having a laugh. I remember his love for dogs, oh he loved dogs. Something we both had in common. He had such a strong love and commitment for his family and you could clearly see that. Rest in peace uncle Joe, your suffering is over and you are in the arms of our God now. God bless you Doris, Robbie and Katie you are in my thoughts and prayers.
Love Melinda & John Kraft and boys

So sorry to hear of Joe’s passing. I had always hoped for an opportunity to meet him again as an adult. My parents (his Uncle Joe that he was named for and Aunt Floss) always spoke about him affectionately. My thoughts and prayers are with you all at this time. Faustina Shea & Family.
