My deepest sympathy to Joe and family on the death of your father. Ann Rodak
Joe, I am sorry for your loss of your father.
My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family
It was disheartening for me to hear of Joe’s passing. He was a very dear friend to me and many others. Joe and many like him were vital to the Weirton of the 40’s 50′ and 60’s. It will be my prayers that Joe’s spirit will continue to guide Weirton back to “Freedom Town” and a wonderful place to work and live. Deepest regards to the family. Coke

Bobbie & Mary, Please accept my sympathies on the passing of your Dad. He was a wonderful man and a good friend of me and my Mom & Dad. He will be serving them up in the Big Bar in the Sky, that’s for sure. Sincerely, Jimmy
I got to tell my Dad goodbye and hope you did too. I missed that with my mother and saying goodbye meant a lot. Bear up as we all must do at parting.
Mary Ruth and Bobbie Julian and family, we are so sorry for your loss. Our condolences go out to each and everyone of you. Never will forget those good ole days at the New 48 Club with Joe and the rest of his friends. Always had a laugh with Joe.
