Dear Yoest family,
Joe (papa Joe or uncle Joe as we would sometimes call him at work) was a good man abs I've of the best bosses I've ever had. I had the pleasure of working for him for 12 years. He was a mentor and i have carried many things that he thought me. I am truely grateful for the positive impact he has had on my life.

Dear Family, Joe was one of the nicest people I have ever known. When my husband, Morris Gowder, died, Joe made sure he checked up on Morris's Mother for over three years. Morris loved Joe and I know they are both together laughing and having a good time again. If I could sum up Joe in just a few words, I would say he was a "fine gentleman". They don't come any better. Please accept my deepest sympathy.
