he was doing for himself.  He loved to fish and travel, he really liked 
cats.  Joe loved all of the wonders of nature, working in his garden was 
something he really enjoyed, having a garden as long as anyone can 
remember.  He really loved his nephew, Kenneth, always finding time to 
spend with him and dealing with him so patiently.  Joe was not only a 
good son, brother, grandson, and uncle but also a good friend, someone to

knew him.
