We were so blessed to know Joe as a result of receiving the selfless gift of his great-grandson through the gift of adoption. While others may have grieved this, he embraced us for which we received a double blessing for knowing him these last 20 years. Through a different relationship than most, we are blessed to call his family our family. A part of our hearts is lost with his passing. Much love to his wife, children and family. Dave, Gwen, and children
