I will never forget Joe. He allowed me to live at his house with him and his mother. I felt like I had a second family. Joe was one of those guys that one reflects on with great memories about how cool he was. I remember his fantastic mechancial abilities. He built a beautiful custom motorcycle from odd parts and his own ingenuity. He always had a great attitude and always there with a smile.

If anyone reading this knows about the funeral services, I'd like to know. tom_peebles2003@yahoo.com

Joe was my first flight instructor. He was a great guy and an excellent pilot. He was not a risk taker at all. I'll miss ya Joe.

One word, "AMAZING"... Amazing pilot, father, and friend! His smile was signature, his laugh was heartwarming, and his knowledge was never ending.
Joe, you will FOREVER be in our hearts and your memory will be forever lasting.

Joe was a excellent flight instructer, mechanic and a friend.
I worked with Joe at GE from 1976 till the closing of the Iron plant. He was someone that I would fly with anytime as he knew what he was doing and he didn't take risks.
Linda and I send our prayers to Joe's fanily and friends. He left he mark on everyone he knew.
Rest in peace.
