Our families were very close when we were kids. Everyone in my family (Julie,Bill,Kristen, and Sky) loved Joe very much and remember him always being such a great person. to say that we are sad to hear of his passing is an understatement. He will always have a special place in our hearts. Sending peace and love to his family.

We are so sorry for your loss. I remember back to when Joe was at my Aunt MeeMee's (Fred's mom) as a child. He was always so full of happiness with the greatest smile! What a beautiful young man he became as he married and had 2 gorgeous children. Phyllis and I will always have Joe and your family in our thoughts and prayers. May you forever feel him in your heart and by your sides. MeeMee and Donnie welcomed him with loving open arms.

I'll always remember Joe as a strong, positive, vibrant man and am so sorry that he has passed. I always considered Joe family and enjoyed every second I spent in his company. My deepest apologies that I couldn't make it back. My thoughts are with you all.

I'm Fred's cousin (Mee Mee's nephew).
In talking to Mee Mee a few weeks before she passed, she was very concerned about Joe's health. All of us were praying for him. It's a mystery why he was taken into heaven at this point in his life. Perhaps he is needed to fulfill another duty in spirit for God. Maybe to help guide someone or others? I do know that Mee Mee welcomed him home and he's in the best of health and enjoying his new surroundings.
