Joe will be sadly missed and fondly remembered by many other family and friends in Canada and USA.
Joe was passionate about cars and motorcycles. Riding his bike gave him the freedom he loved.
Nothing was better than an afternoon ride on a winding road. Joe also enjoyed his time on the snowmobile as well as fishing and bringing home a treasure from his adventures. He loved a good bargain and was affectionately known as PJ.
Joe had a heart of gold. He would stop anything he was working on in order to help a friend or family member.
If you needed anything done on a large scale, he just had to put the word out and his kindness would be reciprocated. He was the epitamy of kindness. If you were fortunate enough to have him as a friend, you knew you had a friend for life.
Joe cherished his time with family and friends enjoying a shot of “Blackberry Brandy”.

“FOREVER IN OUR HEARTS”
