   I climbed with Joe for years in Squamish and as a matter of fact he was the first climber I met when I moved there in 1979
   We had many an adventure from Rick climbing to mountaineering to hiking
   He will be sorely missed, and I know there’s a 5.11 crux somewhere he’s trying to figure out right now
   My condolences to the family

   Joe was a good friend and a great guy. We shared many wonderful times together, climbing, birding, and hiking. I pulled him out of retirement to come work with me, I know he forgave me. I think of him often. Rest in Peace, Joe.

   Your friend, Marc

   My condolences to friends and family.

   Joe was an inspiration to us all. An amazing individual who will not be forgotten. Tough as nails yet always a friend. May you rest in peace Joe.
