Sending you love during this sad time of loss to,Adrian,Joanne,Katrina,Peter and extended family.May you find peace and comfort with God´s blessings.

My condolences to all Joe´s family. My memories of Joe started when he played the organ and piano for St Philomena´s Parish on Brooklands Road. He was very dedicated and very reliable. I also drummed with him when he played piano for Old Time Dancing. The best memory I have of Joe was his spine tingling rendition of "O Holy Night " when he would sing solo for us at Christmas masses. I will miss you Joe.

To the Hignett family. Our condolences for the passing of Joe. We will remember Joe, with affection of our Stratford Aero Club days when we were learning to fly. Also meeting up with Joe at various aerodromes around the country with his aircraft that he built.

Jo visited little fed cafe every day for his breakfast, eggs, tomato and mushrooms on toast and a cup of tea. He will be sadly missed by all of us and allmour customers as well. Known by name by everyone. For iover 5 years! Love to all the family. From the little fed family

Joe was the plumber who came to work on our house in Waitui and after completing the job, asked if he could play our piano. It is not often a tradesman offers a recital as part of their work. Great memories. RIP Joe.
