Joe was a ray of sunshine, in a sometimes dreary world. His smile was infectious, and he had so much love to give. Gary and I were so blessed to have known him, and we will love, and miss him, forever!
Joey was a beloved little sweetheart who our family thought the world of. His passing brings some heartfelt sadness in the joy he brought to others being gone. However I know he is with Dad and Mom and I’m sure that he is happy, as always. Like my brother, Joey was a special gift. My sympathies to his brothers.
Uncle Joe will be missed.
Always loved his spider man…years ago..will be missed ..love you joe..rip brother. Be in peace
Have some very great memories with Joe and my Uncle David. I remember watching Insidious with him, he heard I was watching something scary and was all for it.. He then would laugh at me as I was terrified. He will be missed greatly by the Welsh household! My dad and him will be causing a ruckus up there in heaven!
I also have many great memories with Joe and my brother. We considered him part of our family! Love you Joe! You will be missed by all of us!
The Antique Show will never be the same. We will all miss the smile and waves. God Bless
