Joe will be missed by so many. He was a great friend and mentor to me. I started ushering with Joe about 15yrs ago. He always had a great positive attitude and lifted up everyone around him. Prayers to the family.

I met Joe & his wife Connie at St. Joseph Senior Center in a filled room of dedicated members doing strength training lead by Raco PT. Both Joe & Connie showed such kindness to others. Connie & Joe both lifted my spirits through their caring listening ear & kind words in such comforting manner. Joe always quiet in demeanor but always with kindness, always positive words.
I enjoyed seeing him as greeter at the Senior Center. His words were few but always on a positive direction. Joe loved spreading kindness to any & many he saw at the center. Joe certainly will be missed. I feel certain the years he taught & counseled students he was very much liked, respected as he modeled what he hoped the students would gain in subject matter plus good virtues.
I already miss Joes's warm hearted grin he shared with so many. My heart is saddened for wife Connie as she slowly adjusts to her loss of her faithful, friendly companion, her rock in all those years of their marriage. Joe, eternal happiness be yours in your everlasting home with Our Savior Jesus.
God Bless to you Connie. ❤️

Joe was the steady, quiet hands and feet of Jesus. May the good Lord fill the voids left behind on this side of Heaven as only He can in Jesus’s name for Connie, Julie, Todd, their families and friends.

I worked with Joe for many years in Benton Harbor and they were great years. He was great to work with and fun to be around. Always put the best interests of others first. Thoughts and prayers with Connie and family. Charlotte Wilkens

Joe helped me with financial decisions. I worked with Connie at BLC. Both were /are caring, kind and compassionate people. Since I retired, I have thought of Joe and Connie quite a bit. I know God is hugging you and will continue to do so.
