R.I.P. Joe. I remember the good food he use to fix and bring to church I met you when my brother, Harry was racing. I always thought he was a nice man. I will remember him as a caring man with a great big heart.

Eddie I know u probably dont remember me from Liberty. I left to go to Pineville in 11th grade, in fact I graduated with Starr, but anyhow I remember you dearly. I just wanted you to know that you are in my prayers. I know how it feels to lose a dad. If you need anything I'm on facebook or email me. Lots of love. Tonia

R.I.P joe i'll not only say this for myself but as for my mother to, if she we're here with us now she would say something to me and courtney was just at your house not even a month ago. You was showing us your new shelby mustang, your pretty blue one, and my favorite black mustang, but may god be with you and the rest of the family.

We will miss Mr. Wimmer. He was such a friendly man. He'd always order trophies from us for his Sandbaggers Club and we always liked talking with him. I pray that the Good Lord will give his family comfort in this most difficult time.

I remember a many Friday nights with Joe at the dirt track races, he helped with the race car that my stepfather Doug Calloway built and ran at Beckley and Princeton. There was never a dull moment with Joe, he will be missed....

I've been in Joe's family since I was 12 years old. jerenda and I were best friends and I knew back then that Joe was a case, he had a personality unlike anyone that I had met at that time. He was too cool to be a Dad I thought, and I was right, he wasn't only a Dad, he was also a friend to his children and the friends of his children. Anyone who knew his was a very

Joe was more than a father-in-law to me, he was like a best friend, we laughed joked and got on each others nerves. He shared stories with me of some of the things he done when he was younger and always loved to tell me some of the juvenile things that my husband Joey, done when he was a kid. Joe was a character. He also had a huge heart and would've done anything for anyone who needed help. He

Dad I miss you so much already. More than words could ever explain. Mom came down here today. And I would have had another funny story to tell you. And all she could say afterwards was you act just like your daddy. And I wish you just knew how much she loved you. Me and her has talked a lot these past few days. We. Both loved you more than you realized. I know I got to tell you that morning but I wish you where here so I could say it again.
