Recordered Here by a St Helena's Parishioner
(who is still here)and a Graduate of the
Grammer and H S.
Fr Joe always called me Ivy..
due to being the Florist
from across the Street.
We had the Church Acct.

When we received Holy Communion
he would say, How's Mom,and
give others a Special Hello
that way.
His personality was wonderful, with
great memories.

We all called him Fr in front of kids :)
or Just "Joe" in the Neighborhood.

" Well done Good and Faithful Servant.
Come and Share Your Master's Joy Forever"
