Hi Mary
I just heard about Joe’s passing and my heart goes out to you. I know that the past few years have been difficult for both of you. I looked at the pictures and it brings back so many memories. I have very fond memories of visiting you and Joe in the old farmhouse when I was home on vacation. My thoughts and prayers are with you.

Dear Mary, Ruth, Pat & Carroll and all the extended Morkin family members. We remember Joe with fondness and remember his laugh and good times we spent together in former years. Joe was a good friend to many. We would have loved to visit with you all at the funeral home, but we were on vacation when Joe passed. May you all recall the good days, joy and fun you enjoyed growing up on the Morkin farm. May God grant him peace and rest in heaven forever.
