What can I say... How I met Joe and Alice was in a Boerne Dance Hall while I was sitting by myself not knowing anyone. They both took me under their wing and what wonderful times we had dancing. Joe loved dancing and was a true gentlemen and cowboy. He will greatly be missed. I just heard of his passing when I moved back from Maryland Oct 2010. In all these years I had not forgotten Alice and Joe. My deepest condolences to you Alice. And Joe, Happy trails to you until we meet again.
