Guestbook

  1. I worked with Joe and considered him a close friend. He always was there to help in any way he could, whether it be work related or personal. He stood up for fellow employees when he new the company was wrong. He always had an upbeat attitude, and could make me laugh at any given moment. I’ve seen his talent as an artist, and always thought he had a gift that needed to be known to the public. He was so proud of the airbrush kit Lynn got him and told me so at work. I’m truely going to miss him.

  2. Joe was a great friend of mine. He got hired right after I did and we both worked on the back of the coaters stacking together for over 4 years. We developed a great friendship, both at work and off work. Joe was a person that I could always talk to and he knew he could always talk to me. I’m going to miss my “little red-headed” friend, who I called my brother. Joe, Rest in Peace, I’ll miss you. God Bless You. He may be gone in person but he will always be here in spirit. Watch over the rest of us until we meet again.

  3. Joe was a great friend to all who knew him. we had many great times toghther and i had the honor of being Joe’s best man when he married lynn. eventhough it has been a while since we had a chance to talk i will always regret that. joe was a great and true friend. i will never forget the times we spent fishing. i will never forget you joe you were a great friend and i will miss you very much. I can only hope we shall see each other again in that place where there is only love and no shadows fall, you have touched my everybeing… i shall never forget you

  5. Joe is a great guy that I had the pleasure and honor to meet in 1993 while attending Jefferson Technical College. Joe was the kind of guy who put his heart and sole into everything he did. Joe and I not only went to school together but also worked together at Nationwise auto parts. There are three things that I remember the most about my friend Joe; one, he was passionate about everthing he did, two, he always made you laugh, and three, he loved Lynn very much. Lynn, you and Justin are in our thoughts and prayers. God Bess you! John and Jamey.

  7. Dear Lynn, We are shocked and upset to hear of Joe’s passing. There are probably just no words at all to express what you and Justin must be feeling right now and we pray to God that you and your family will soon find peace and comfort. I’ve known you and Joe through school activities through the past few years. You and he were always so generous with your time and efforts during the Hancock County science fairs.The entire executive board and I thank you for making them possible. I think Joe enjoyed the projects as much as the kids-that’s probably because he was still just a big kid at heart. Joe always had a genuine smile on his face and his sense of humor and positive attitude will always be remembered. Lynn, my heart breaks for you and Justin. Please know that we pray for you both. I know that the Lord gives strength whenever we need it. You are a bright and wonderful mom and I know that Joe will be able to look down and always see that you and Justin have taken great care of one another. If there is anything at all that we can do for you, please don’t hesitate to call. Love and prayers Roberta and Tom Taylor
