Jeff and family, I had the pleasure of working with Joe for several years at Broughton Hospital in Occupational Therapy. He was a man of integrity . I hated to hear of the passing of your Mom just a couple months ago. I know your Father was looking forward to their reunion. May God bring you comfort.
