Barbara, Harold, Shannon, and other family members. I am sorry for the loos of Joe.

When I lived in town you folks were our neighbors and y'all were good neighbors.

Joe has been my friend for as long as I can remember. I would see him almost every day going to town at a little past 11 as he drove past our farm. Always waved and had a smile on his face.

Joe bought more new pickups than any one I know. Within a week those new trucks had dual exhaust put on them. Joe said they ran better with duals.

I will miss you Joe, but I will never forget you.

Every time I saw Joe, he was Joe. That made him special.

I met Joe back in my Hardee's days. One of my favorite coffee drinkers, along with Jimmy Terry. Oh, they had so much fun, almost like their own little hen party! Joe was one of the nicest men I have ever met. Even years after I left Hardee's, he never failed to wave at me when he saw me in town, and never forgot my name. I am so very sorry for your loss. He was a sweet, sweet man. RIP, Joe. We'll see each other again. And I'll make sure you have a fresh cup any time you want it.

Barbara, Harold Wayne, Shannon, and the rest of the family,
Joe has been a part of our family as long as I can remember. I knew of none that disliked him. He didn't judge people. He was such an accepting person and loved to talk to people. So many of you already can attest to the man he truly was. No fronts to make people like him because he was so sincere and comfortable in his own skin. I loved that about him.
My prayers are with each of you as you say farewell to your loved one. Don't say goodbye because Joe will be waiting on the other side for you...with a brand new leg.
We love you all and will be here for you.

Barbara, Harold, Shannon & grandkids: We are so sorry to hear about your losing Joe. Leon and I went to Ft Smith this week, and his name came up because we saw a dump truck with the bed in the air. Leon said that is what caused Joe Walker to lose his leg. We both have always thought a lot of him, as well as you all, We are praying that God will wrap His loving arms around you and carry you all through this rough time & in the days ahead. Love --Leon & Reba Rollans
