Ann & Family, No words can truly express my feelings and respect for such a man as Joe Myers. He has been to me the example of what a God loving man should be. His love for God & country surpasses what most this day and time can understand. His love for the military and its fighting men demonstrates who he is. As a God loving man, and a military man myself, I SALUTE you Joe Myers. Ann, I pray that God will cuddle you up with his comforting Love. ( semper fi ) Roger & mary Carnes

My heart is sad to hear the news of Joe's passing, but also happy because I know that he is home. What a caring christian man he was. I knew him from Cardiac Rehab where I worked. My prayers and sympathy to Joe's family.
