Dorthy, I don't know if you remember me, but I worked with Joe when he was a contractor working with Buck Jones Lbr Co, I also kept books for Joe in my home until we moved to Pensacola, Fl. I cannot tell you how sorry I am to hear of Joe's death. He was a wonderful, wonderful man and a true friend. My prayers are with you and your family. I know you will deeply miss Joe. My thoughts are with you.

Mrs. Dorothy and Bill, I am so sorry that Mr. Joe is gone, though he is finally finished with the agony of his cancer and is resting. He will be sorely missed at our church. I can still see him going down the isle with the collection basket wearing those suspenders. We all loved him and will miss him. I'm sure God is glad to get him up there to fix all the things that need fixing in heaven. Love, Cleo and Carroll Martin

Mrs. Daigle, Tom, Bill, Ms Etta and Ms Betty, I am so sorry for your loss and will be praying for the family. We all know Mr. Daigle is the arms of friends and family that preceded him, as a matter of fact, he and my paw-paw are catching up on old times as I type this!!
Mr. Daigle was a wonderful caring man and always there when someone needed him. He will be missed dearly, he had the sweetest smile and the compassion that poured through his eyes was unmatched. My son said (when the Pope passed away) Hey mom, paw-paw met The Pope today and now The Pope has had the honor of meeting another perfect example of a faithful rock.
We will keep you in our thoughts and prayers in this difficult time.
God Bless,
Tammy(Brucelles granddaughter), Joseph, Jacob and Julian
