Dear Moyer Family,
So sorry for your loss!
My Dad was very fond of Joe, his friendship, and work ethic.
I am very fortunate that last time Brother Mike and I visited Adams we contacted Joe to meet up with us. We reminisced, laughed, and felt like no time past since we last visited.
I hope Joe saves some whitetails in heaven for us all.
God Bless the whole Moyer Family!
Regards,
Bill Greene, Gilbert, AZ

Your Dad and Husband was a very nice man. There was never a time when walking by the house with one of the dogs that he did not stop and have something nice to say. Harley was the best trained dog…as he walked by Droopie always thought he was bigger than him. Your dad would just laugh and say Harley sit he doesn’t know better. Know our thoughts and prayers are with you and your Family.

Patty and children
I am so sorry to hear of Joe’s passing. For years Joe would come out here to the farm to hunt, but after he got sick, sometimes even if he didn’t get a deer, he seemed to just enjoy being out there in the woods (quiet time I guess). He had an old chair out there and it’s still there. He would sometimes just stop in for coffee, he loved visiting with people. Joe did many odd jobs for me out here. Joe was a good man and always had a smile for you. Since my daughter Sheryl passed away a year ago Dec., I haven’t kept up with Joe’s health, but last I had heard he was doing fairly well considering. Again Patty, I am so sorry for your loss and you and the children are in my thoughts and prayers. If there is anything I can do for you, or if you just want to talk…..I’m here….just call. love Pat (Gervais)
Dennis and Rushell, I’m so sorry for your loss. God bless. Your family is in our prayers.
