To Joe’s family, I have fond memories of the monthly visits to our farm as Joe brought any supplies we needed. Pipeline cleaners, fly spray and all cow needs. Enjoyed our visits and then there was Mary. They were the perfect pair. I imagine now they are together again. Pain for you and God’s blessings for them. Please accept my sympathy to all.
