  9. Such incredibly sad news. I’ve missed Joseph ever since I had to leave Perfect Peace fifteen years ago. He was one of my favorite co-workers.
    As heavy as my heart is, I can only imagine the devastation his family & close friends feel. May God send them comfort & the grace and strength to deal with such a tremendous loss.

  10. My Broseph,
    I will miss you. There aren’t many in my world that I saw as pure and genuine hearted, but you were one of the very few that fit that description. The world has lost a real one. I will see you again one day Broseph. My deepest condolences to family and friends of his wonderful soul.

  11. Through all my years of teaching and being around many students and faculty. My daughter’s good friend Joseph was the sweetest guy I have ever met. He has been over to our home many times and we have enjoyed his visits immensely. He will be missed by many. My heart goes out to Joseph’s family.

  12. Joseph you will be greatly missed. You were well loved by your friends. We are praying for your family in this tough time.

  13. Joseph,
    What a great person to know, even though it was through phone conversations, he was always happy, funny and had a great outlook on life.
    I have enjoyed the short time that we have known each other.
    My heart goes out to his family and friends, may God give y’all peace.

  14. I called Dugan Trucking today to pay an invoice. I asked for Joseph. And was told that he had passed away.
    I am very sad to hear that. He was always kind and very pleasant to talk to. I only knew him though phone
    conversations. We would talk about the weather and my grandkids and etc…while he was processing my payment. His family is in my thoughts and prayers. He will be greatly missed. Connie Branson Chamber
