It was always a pleasure going to your house in the woods. We had a lot of fun in your big barn!

Having known Joe for over 40 years, I know I could never say enough great things about him. He was always incredibly warm, kind, and an exceptional listener. We shared a passion for plants—especially native fruit trees—and for everything connected to simpler times.
My deepest condolences to the entire family for their loss. He was the best father-in-law a guy could ever ask for.

We worked in the garden and had a fire out by the barn!! He showed us around his fruit trees. Grandpa Joe’s green thumb always inspired me. He loved working outside with his plants and kept at it as long as he could!
