Joe will be greatly missed. I coached Joe in baseball during his middle school years and completely enjoyed spending time with him.
We periodically saw each other through the years and it was always great catching up on our lives.
I was so happy to see Joe and his family attending Grace Community Church and to find out he had accepted Jesus Christ as his Savior.
That truth is where we get our comfort as we grieve over Joe’s physical departure from this earth.
We look forward to seeing him again.
