I had the pleasure of working with Joe at Amana. It was truly an experience as he was a big prankster. He was always happy. I never did see him without a smile on his sweet face. May God help you during your time of sorrow. God has an angel now in the form of Joe! He is walking those golden streets now with that sweet smile of his. God bless!
