Joe was a great family friend of my dad, Milo Maeder, I enjoyed Joe and his company, may he rest in peace, my prayers and thoughts are with the family
Thad,
I’m so sorry to hear about your Dad. My kids and I have so many great memories of him at the acreage and with your kids as well. My kids will always think of him as Grandpa Joe.
I know he’s in a much better place now. A place where he can be healthy again and live life freely.
Having cared for him these past few weeks I had a chance to listen to him reflect on his life. I’ll carry his words with me always. I know he loved you, your kids and brother very much! He’ll be deeply missed!
Sincerely,
Andrea and kids

I worked closely with Joe over the last several years here at Mercy dialysis. I so enjoyed his sense of humor that would come out at times in spite of the daily pain and health problems that plagued him. He will be missed here at the dialysis unit.
