Sad news. We'll remember all the best times.

I have a video Joe made of our Audya presentation. Very nice and down to earth man. Will say a prayer for him.

Sorry to hear the news about Joe. I have his videos from the arranger jams, brought me to the action when it was impossible to attend. Joe use to shoot me an e-mail every now and then, we shared the same politics. Never met him but would have liked too. As I recall he lost his son a few years ago under some tragic circumstances. Let Joe know he has my prayers.

Yes, Joe's son was murdered by a "friend". She and accomplices have since been arrested and prosecuted.
I haven't heard any more from Joe or his daughter.
She is supposed to call me back.

Don:

I can't tell you how sad this news makes me. I never got to make a single jam in Shreveport but wanted to be there so badly. Joe Lee's photos helped me understand what I had missed... and enjoy vicariously the many folks I had wanted to meet and greet, you included my friend. My prayers for Joe are "on their way" and if you do get to see him give him our best. Drive carefully and let us know how it went if you are able to see him.

All the best,

Dave Rice

Don,

I met Joe at the first Shreveport jam. What a great guy he is. Please give him my best. Sorry for your loss Don.

I talked to Joe's daughter last night. He is moving into a Hospice today. They are trying to keep him comfortable. His phone is not working right now, but should be again Monday night.
I'm still trying to find out if it is wise to visit him, but I will know more tomorrow.

You are ALL in our prayers, Don ...

When a really good friend of ours passed, we were talking to his son about how much his wife was going to miss him ... the son said "That's the price of a good marriage" ... the same goes for friendships ...
