Dear Adkins family:
Little Joe was a freshie in my senior year at Kanty; he was a delight as a friend and student; I had the pleasure reminiscing good memories with Joe at our 2015 Woodloch Pa. Kanty reunion; Faith invites us to look forward to that joyful reunion at the table of the Lord; What a family celebration that will be...Shalom.

Joe will be sadly missed. Memories of St. Mary's grade school, Kanty, and SVC are flooding my mind. All of these are good, loving memories. I'll always enjoy thoughts of the little Kanty reunion he held at his home a couple of years ago serving Lake Erie fish and Ohio venison. Both were excellently prepared. Our condolences are with his family. You had a great Dad and brother. We're sorry we only heard about his passing today. We would have been there for his services.

To all of Joe's family and friends Nancy and I are very sorry for your loss. We have a lot of good memories of Joe with us at the campground at Lake Erie. He will be greatly missed.

We will sorely miss our dear friend, Joe. The fond memories of fishing at Lake Erie, all of the great carry in dinners, and socializing at the campground bring smiles as we think about him. Things were never the same after the campground closed and our friends from Camp Sissy were no longer there. We wish to extend our deepest sympathy to Joe's family. He was a wonderful friend and we will certainly miss him.

So sorry for your loss. Joe will be missed. We met him when our daughters played softball together. We will certainly miss his Christmas Card greeting bringing us up to date on family and his life. Peace and blessings to you at this difficult time.
