It saddens me greatly to hear that Joe has passed. His warm, friendly smile & terrific sense of humor will be missed. I first met Joe & Mary shortly after they'd moved to N.C., and they had registered for a seniors' recreational activity. When he first introduced his wife & himself to me, he said, "This is my wife, Mary, & I'm Joseph". I smiled back, and said, "Ok, like Jesus' parents", and he quickly shot back with, "We're THAT old!" He about had me doubled over, as I was laughing so hard. That was Joe. A super nice & friendly guy.
