Message from Steven Lechner

I was shocked to learn of Joe's passing. I wish to express my love and prayers to his family. I had the pleasure of coaching Joe in football during his days at High Point Christian Academy. As a young football player, he was tough, determined, and fearless. More importantly, Joe met hard work and challenges with a smile. He loved life and will be missed by those he touched. God bless you Joseph.

Message from Roger Blackburn

I am very sorry for your loss and I'd like to share my condolences with your family. Joe worked with us at Corning and specifically with the Stranding department. He was working on helping solve downtime issues and helping us be more productive. This wasn't an easy task but he always was professional and respectful to the Stranding crews who I am one. We all got to know Joe as best we could and it was very enjoyable talking with him. The older guys liked to kid and joke around with him with our, "we know it all routines," but he took it in stride and actually listened to what we were talking about. We liked and respected Joe and he is already missed. Again all of the Stranding department wanted to express these few thoughts and again we are deeply saddened by his passing. Our prays are with you.
Roger B.

Lissa,
Words are never adequate in moments like these. We would like to say our hearts go out to you and the entire family. Joe was a fine young man I will always remember the night you burned your hand we had the burn cream it was freezing cold outside but Joe had just gotten his permit and begged you to let him drive you over. He never met a stranger and always had a smile on his face. I know you were so proud of him. We love you and we will always have fond memories.

Message from Cindy McManus

Dear Family,
I am so heartbroken for your loss. I taught Joseph history in middle school at High Point Christian, and we connected so strongly. Joseph was such a patriotic young man and I loved that about him so much. I was proud and grateful that he was the one to receive his 8th grade class's American flag that was flown over the Capitol in honor of their visit. I was confident it was in worthy hands. I know that words can bring you little comfort for such an aching loss, but please know that you all are in my heart, my thoughts, and my prayers. May the God of all comfort support and hold you in His very capable arms until the day you see Joseph again. I'm thankful for that hope!
Much love, sympathy and prayers,
Cindy McManus
