Sorry to inform y'all, that my father in law Joe, K8JP has Passed away in 9/23/23 at 5:40 AM this morning, after a long battle of cancer, at age of 80.
He was a good CW operator, loved his family, CW, fishing, and his cigars.
He will be dearly missed.

Losing someone so close is so hard. I am sharing in your sadness.
Joe was a nice person; he was a FOC associate member and in the past years we had email exchanges about bug keys.
Dear Imi, my deepest condolences to you and your family for your loss.

I sent this to your step half sister, Tiffany Pontek. 



Oh, yes, my memory gets confused. I'm glad your father found Rowena because I now realize that what he said on our last phone call together that disturbed him so very much was the memory that chemotherapy had killed your mother, Beverly, and he was worried about it doing the same thing to him. He was right, and he usually was right about things, perhaps by intuition because of his correct moral position of his soul. I've seen holy persons have flawless knowledge of the future. RIP my dear Joe, I will miss you greatly.
