To my shock I’ve just discovered that Joe died 3 years ago. I worked with Joe during his time at Bruce Hardwood Floors in the UK. I’ve always remembered Joe with fond respectful memories due to his unique style of managment which brought an enthusiasm and energy to the whole business. I can honestly say that I have never enjoyed any of my career as much as I did when working with Joe. RIP big fella. XX

Lisa,  I am so sorry for the loss of our great big loving friend.  In life there are few that one can say are true friends, perhaps only a hand full. Joe was that to me. Through the many bright and dark hours of life we shared our thoughts.  I am sure that those who loved him were blindsided by his passing, not least of all myself. There is nothing I can say that will lessen your feeling of loss of such a fine friend and mate.  Bonnie and I pass our sincere condolances along to you and the girls.  May he rest in peace.

Words can not express my feelings for the lost of such an amazing husband, Father, and friend! His Time here reflects his love for his amazing wife and daughters who he cherished more than anything…they will always be his greatest achievements in life. It was a pleasure to meet Joe after a years of being best friends/ college friends with his daughter Chelsea. Whom my heart breaks for tremendously for her unborn baby boy ( his first grandson). Today should not be a sad day but, and only a joyous day! Joe would have wanted it this way I am sure…because his family still have so much to live and breath for…the birth of his grandson. My family and I are sending you much prayer and strength during this very difficult time from Florida. We know joes radiant smile will be upon Lisa and the girls lives for the rest of there lives. We love you!

How could one human body hold all that he was? Joe was a rare being, blessed with so many abilities and filled with love and compassion besides. Anyone who knew him sensed the presence of a rare soul. Although his life was too short, what he accomplished was mammoth. 
To his family, we are stunned at your loss. We pray that over time all of his humor, love, and wisdom will aid you as you carry on.We send our love to you. Please know that our prayers have been with you through this extraordinarily difficult journey.
