It's hard to believe five years have passed since my precious brother Joe passed away. I couldn't have had a better brother: kind, considerate, wise, and loving. He was my hero growing up in Belfast and is still my hero. May he rest in peace.

I just learned of Joe’s passing now. I was one of his roommates before he married Joan. He was always so supportive of everyone around him. I remember that he was able to make hard decisions quickly and decisively for the benefit of all of us.

I thought of him recently from a comment that he made on seeing Gordon Pinsent in “Going down the Road”. He said that the Newfoundland accent was identical to that of Belfast.

I have good memories.

I was so sorry to hear that Joe had passed away. On May 16 I was in St. Joe's for blood testing and there he was, ditto. We smiled, shared a few words and went on our medical ways. I did not often have the opportunity to talk to him, but whenever I did, usually at High Park Club, I found him to be an engaging conversationalist, quietly amusing. A lovely man indeed.
Alas, I will be out of town for the celebration of life. Raise a glass to Joe!

Joe was a great friend to the HPC community. Joe and Joan were the first tennis members I met. I looked forward to the phone calls on weekday evenings when Joan called to organize Joe’s weekend tennis schedule. He was a gentleman on and off the court and had a sly wit used effectively on his opponents. He will be remembered fondly by those who had the privilege to play a set or two of doubles with him on the grass at HPC.

Dear Joan and family,

Sorry, I am unable to attend but you have my deepest condolences. I will be thinking of you on this day of celebration. The family and I will be canoeing in the Yukon. Take care.

Joe and I were cousins, born in Belfast, Northern Ireland. By sheer coincidence, we came to Canada on the same ship, arriving May 10, 1967. I was so sad to hear of his passing. He was a great man. My love and prayers go out to Joan and his sons. May he rest in peace.
