    Patrick, Kim and Kathy I am profoundly saddened by your loss. Joe is one of the most important people to my development as a man, friend and as a father. I loved him dearly and although we have been separated by geography all of these years there has rarely been a day he hasn’t been in my thoughts. Our adventures and his stories have and will never leave me. God bless and I will pour a little Oly out for him today. Could you please email me any info on the services and if I’ve missed them I would love any pictures you could share.
