Joe I know you’re in heaven with your parents and your daughter. You’ve always been a good friend. rest now joe, no more labor. Love always Faye ( Fredrick’s Aconditioner )
Joe and I worked together for a few months and became close friends. He was very easy to get along with, always friendly and happy. Since I retired last year I have not seen Joe. Until 4 weeks ago, I was sitting at Dairy Queen on Hwy 87 at china grove when Joe walked in and saw me came over to me with his big smile. We started talking and laughing about our times at Lancer. Miss you my Friend.
My condolences to Joe’s Family, Gerri God give you strength in this difficult time. From little Yvonne (friedrich ac line 4712)
My prayers and sympathy to the family. I will miss Joe waving at me across the street and always smiling…
Joe was a friend of my father’s “buddy” and mine from Friedrich. He was a big strong tough guy, but at the same time kind and funny. Joe always called me “cold beer” because my father sold beer at the the spurs and missions games. Condolences from the Sarate family Anthony “buddy” and Brian.
Our deepest condolences and prayers to Geri and family.

I am deeply sorry for your loss. I hope this article helps you as much as it has helped me. Good News From God! LESSON 6 What Hope Is There for the Dead? 1. What is the good news about the dead? The resurrected Lazarus is welcomed back by his sisters Martha and Mary. When Jesus arrived at Bethany near Jerusalem, his friend Lazarus had been dead for four days. Jesus went to the burial place with Martha and Mary, sisters of the deceased man. Soon, a crowd gathered. Can you imagine the joy of Martha and Mary when Jesus raised Lazarus back to life?—Read John 11:21-24, 38-44. Martha was already aware of the good news about the dead. She knew that Jehovah will resurrect the dead to live on earth again.—Read Job 14:14, 15. 2. What is the condition of the dead? God told Adam: “Dust you are and to dust you will return.”—GENESIS 3:19. Humans are made from dust. (Genesis 2:7; 3:19) We are not spirits living in a body of flesh. We are physical creatures, so no part of us survives death. When we die, our brain dies too, and our thoughts perish. Thus, Lazarus said nothing about his experience of death because the dead are unconscious.—Read Psalm 146:4; Ecclesiastes 9:5, 6, 10. Does God torment people with fire after death? Since the Bible shows that the dead are unconscious, hellfire is clearly a false teaching that slanders God. The very idea of tormenting people with fire disgusts him.—Read Jeremiah 7:31. 3. Can the dead speak to us? The dead can neither speak nor hear. (Psalm 115:17) But some angels are wicked, and they may speak to people and pretend to be dead humans. (2 Peter 2:4) Jehovah forbids trying to inquire of the dead.—Read Deuteronomy 18:10, 11. 4. Who will return to life? A man who was resurrected back to life in Paradise learns about God. Then the man helps teach others who are resurrected. Many millions of people who are dead in the grave will return to life on earth. Even some who did not know God and who practiced bad things will be resurrected.—Read Luke 23:43; Acts 24:15. Resurrected ones will be able to learn the truth about God and to exercise faith in Jesus by obeying him. (Revelation 20:11-13) Those who return to life and do good things will be able to enjoy life forever on earth.—Read John 5:28, 29. 5. What does the resurrection tell us about Jehovah? God made hope for the dead possible by sending his Son to die for us. So the resurrection tells us about Jehovah’s love and undeserved kindness. When the dead return to life, whom do you especially want to see?—Read John 3:16; Romans 6:23.
