Terri and boys,
I am shocked saddened to learn of Joe’s passing. He was, without a doubt, one of the finest men I’ve ever known. His gentle demeanor and genuine soul were examples for any family man to live by. Joe never knew a stranger and was kind to anyone he encountered. I know I speak for J.R. and my family here in Florida in saying the McConda family is in our thoughts and prayers. Joe was a true servant of God who will love and care for him. ??

I can't believe that he has left us way too soon. I will remember the few times when we had time together, laughed and enjoyed each other's company. I send my condolences with my prayers. He will truly be missed.
